updated, now shutting down

Hi
I have version 7 and build 541 and downloaded the spyware update.
I installed it and re ran the program. The spy detected started running and then i got a runtime error from microsoft visual c++ saying privacyexpert.exe has requested runtime to terminate in an unusual way. It does this every time now. I know i have something on my compluter as it showed at least one thing befor it shut down the first time.

Any ideas please?

Thanks

Paul

What is the Solution?

Irina,

I have the same problem. How come after I loaded the latest spyware defintions, I keep getting runtime error when I run PE? It just won't work. I made sure that I have latest updates. The program announces a runtime error and then freezes.

Forums work a lot better when the solution is posted. I saw some other postings which hint at similar problems, they say you guys provided a solution.........well why don't you say what that is?? So far I am not impressed with the this product and find the documentation and support to be VERY WEAK!!!!!

Irina-

I am having the same problem...

I originally purchased PES 2003 (build211)... Worked fine
Updated to 7.0.512... Worked fine
Updated to 8[1]0... Worked fine

Had to reformat computer roughly 3 months ago and the only thing new I did was update Norton Internet Security...

After that I could not install Ver 8 or 7 without getting a security error and automatic shut down to protect system...

I could install PES 2003, but when I run full system clean-up the system shuts down @ step 6 and I get the same quick error flash before shut-down...

I can't capture that screen and I can't capture the Microsoft XP error report that they want me to send to them...

Microsofts help page says that the highest probability is a driver conflict...

Irina-

Where do I find the memory dump information?

When the crash occurs my computer defaults to a dos window, and then the computer shuts down, supposedly to protect the system...

I'm assuming I can call up the memory dump info after a reboot

 

the file is memory.dmp and located in ur windows (winnt if win2k) directory/folder.
