When ever I use the search function in windows xp professional with the advanced search options I get a lock up of the search function and I usally get the search folder that does not close. Also I get a data execution prevention error. I have Comodo firewall installed and Node 32 antivirus. If I don't use advanced search options, the program does not lock up. I have scanned for virus with several on line services, there are no virus on the computer. To unlock to computer screen, I must go into windows task manager and the programs that I must stop to unlock the computer are DR. Watson and usally there are more than 1 running at at time. I have tried about everything that I can think of including reinstalling windows which did not help. I am running a MSI K8n Neo 4 with 64xs 4600 AMD processer with 2 g memory. Mem tested the memory OK. New build with new power supply. What would cause this. No new software installed.

Jump to PostIf you are unable to use 'Search' Function properly then disable the Advanced options of it. And also tell the name of program which will be blocked by DEP (Data Execution Prevention).
