i got dvdfab to work, but only choosing the "main movie' as the burning option. seems i had to jump through hoops just to get a basic thing going. not as user friendly as the older version, to me.

CCleaner, Spybot S&D and uTorrent work, PeerGuardian fails on 64bit, get some strange error
LastFM plugin seems to work fine as well.

MO u just have a flaky install, the new ver of dvdfab works perfectly for all the burn configurations and it looks nearly the same ...the reason for ver 5.2.2.0 is the protection scheme on "The Dark Knight" is/was new and the previous vers couldn't rip it. The only hoop I had to jump thru was to clik the install button PeerGuardian fails to work on my setup also

Data Execution Prevention (DEP) is a security feature included in modern Microsoft Windows operating systems that is intended to prevent an application or service from executing code from a non-executable memory region. This helps prevent certain exploits that store code via a buffer overflow, for example. DEP runs in two modes: hardware-enforced DEP for CPUs that can mark memory pages as nonexecutable, and software-enforced DEP with a limited prevention for CPUs that do not have hardware support. Software-enforced DEP does not protect from execution of code in data pages, but instead from another type of attack (SEH overwrite).

DEP was introduced in Windows XP Service Pack 2 and is included in Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005, Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 and later,[1] Windows Vista, and Windows Server 2008.

in that case, it's set to the first circle/box checked, like in the wiki pic. I assume this is default as I certainly haven't changed it

[m.oreilly]

i'll try disabling it. i have had this issue several times w/server 08 x64. my xeons might be suspicious of the little monkey guy

[stormrosson]

no doubt
