Halo,

Excution Prevention has closed Microsoft Help and support stopped and the
same for windows Mail.I klick this message and comming this help option but
I can not open this DEP setting.
What is Data Execution Prevention?

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.

I know the first question everyone is going to ask you is if you are using
McAffee or Norton virus software, but I don't know why that would effect the
Help program.
Try Start, All Programs, Accessories, System Tools, System Info, Hardware
Resources, Memory and check to see that everything to the right says OK. If
it doesn't add it to subsequent posts. You might want to peek at Device
Manager to see if anything (especially system devices) is awry (yellow or red
symbols). I have a memory checker that I check mine with, but offhand I
can't remember where it is. I'll check. It's probably in McAffeee's
Computer Maintenance check list, but I don't think you are allowed to mention
the name McAfee in this forum unless you're cursing.
 
If you are accessing this forum through the Windows Mail, Help, Questions and
Answer... viewer and have access to the search engine, enter Data Execution
Prevention and you will see some similar posts dealing with this problem.
Hope one of them helps you, but I don't know how any of this effects Windows
Help. You weren't referring to the Help in Windows Mail were you?

Like most pathologic viruses, McAfee can be difficult to remove. :-)
To McAfee's credit, they have recognized this and have made a
special removal tool available:

I don't know of a specific fix for that, but you could try a repair-install
of Vista:
