Hi,

The issue you are encountering is being caused by DEP (Data Execution Prevention), which may be enabled automatically in Vista.

This is something that will be fixed in the next version of EULAlyzer. In the meantime, there is a workaround to disable DEP for EULAlyzer so it can run:

Right-click on "Computer" in the Start Menu and choose Properties. This will open a new window with information about your System.
Click the "Advanced system settings" option on the left side.
Click the Settings button under "Performance".
There should be a new window with a tab for Data Execution Prevention. Simply add "eulalyzer.exe" as a temporary workaround, and it should work without further issues.

Best regards,

Thanks Javacool - this resolves the problem (and may also be the solution for a few applications that won't work!)
