> Yes, we have tested DXP with XP SP2 and also XP 64-bit version. These

> Right click on My Computer and select Properties. The "System

> "Perfomance Options" dialog comes up and the last tab on that dialog is
> named Data Execution Prevention (DEP). There you can use Add button and
> add DXP.EXE to the list of programs that are not affected by DEP.
> That should fix it.
