Preventing DEP from closing a program

I'm having a frustrated time with DEP constantly closing an app which
I already have added to the exempt list in System Properties ->
Advanced -> Performance Settings -> Data Execution Prevention. The
program in question is checked, along with a host of other programs.

The other programs on the list aren't being constantly closed by DEP,
but for some reason, these two: Microsoft (r) Console Based Script
Host (cscript.exe in system32 folder) and Run a DLL as an App are
always being closed by DEP.

I'm simply trying to transcode MKV files to WMV files and am using a
couple of VBS files to automate the process using Windows Media
Encoder and some decoder pack.

Can someone please tell me how I can prevent DEP from closing apps?
TIA.

Click to expand...

Try to Turn the DEP OFF by doing this:
Right click My Computer and select properties, then on the System properties
click on Advanced Tab.
Then click on StartUp and Recovery Button, on the StartUp and Recovery
window click on Edit Button under System Startup and edit like this:

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP
Professional" /fastdetect /NoExecute=AlwaysOff.

Then click On Performance Button under Advanced tab, on Performance Options
click on Data Execution Prevention Tab and check this Radio Button:
(*) Turn on DEP for essential windows programs and services only.

If you have a third party shell running in the background can cause this
error to occur and an BHO on your Browser so with Process Explorer you will
see which is causing this error.

1- Click start >> Control Panel >> Double Click Network and Internet
Connections >> Double click Internet Options, on the IE Properties window
you will see these Options:
General | Security | Privacy | Content | Connections | Programs
| Advanced .
Click on Programs tab then click Manage Add-Ins and Disable all non-Verified
Add-Ins there and Reboot your machine and try to open the Windows explorer
(you need to Renable the Add-Ins One-by-One later and see the culprit which
will cause the Error and Remove it or leave it disabled).

You need to scan for Viruses, hence the Run a DLL error, it doesn't look
good to me, so scan for both malwares and Viruses.
HTH.
