I got the new iPhone 3g a couple weeks ago and I’ve experienced a few annoyances such as bad battery life, a slightly loose home button, had the white screen of death once, and multiple freezes/crashes. I’m thinking about going back into AT&T and getting a replacement, but I was just wondering about all of the data I have on my phone. Will I be able to restore an iTunes backup of my current iPhone onto a new one?
With Windows DEP (Data Execution Protection) enabled, (useful for blocking badly written programs), the messenger installer crashes. So I cannot install later versions.
Why does the installer misbehave and cause a DEP exception ?
DEP can be enabled to block viruses and badly written programs, it’s normally off by default.
Will this be fixed in messenger 8.2 or newer?
I end up getting a message that appears on the task bar at the bottom of the screen about how "Data Execution Prevention"
"To help protect your computer DEP has closed Internet Explorer"
I have internet security software installed, (Norton Internet Security 2009) so why is this happening? (My lap top uses Vista)
From Windows Help and Support:
Data Execution Prevention (DEP) is a security feature that can help prevent damage to your computer from viruses and other security threats. Harmful programs can try to attack Windows by attempting to run (also known as execute) code from system memory locations reserved for Windows and other authorized programs. These types of attacks can harm your programs and files.
DEP can help protect your computer by monitoring your programs to make sure that they use system memory safely. If DEP notices a program on your computer using memory incorrectly, it closes the program and notifies you.
Should I do a system recovery or system restore to restore Internet Explorer 7 that was originally installed on my lap top?
Although IE 7 crashes regularly when I use it.
I work for a computer company that uses slow computers in their offices in order to save power. Thus, I bring my laptop everyday and had my folders transfered so I am guessing my work is not saved on the company servers and therefore if my laptop crashes, I am DEEPLY screwed.
Can you please recommend a cost and time effective solution where I can save my data at the end of EACH day to prevent loss of data from crashes and such (Software apps)? There are external drives/DVD-CDs etc but those take way too long and you always need to worry about space.
Additionally, my laptop (although faster than the company's computers) is still pretty freakin slow at times (esp. at startup, and if I have more than maybe 3 word docs and 2 web browsers open, forget it)..I was thinking of adding ram…will it make a big difference? Where can I buy it so that it works well and is cost-effective? I've never installed ram so it might be best to go somewhere where I have physical assistance.
Thx SOOOO MUCH!!
At least once a day, Zone Alarm (vsmon) crashes. Sometimes when using Soulseek, sometimes when Webroot tries to download. I've tried uninstalling, cleaning caches, and reinstalling ZA, but it doesn't help. It appears the crash blocks all internet access, that's better than allowing all. Still it's annoying. I've tried Commodore firewall, but that has lots of problems with wireless connections. Any suggestions?

Any suggestions?
Latest answer now under testing. I'll let you know if there is no crash in 2 days. Thanks for the tip! –Mykel
