Vista BEX error - winapi

Recently I got IE7 crashed on Vista on jar loading (presumably) with the following error:
Problem signature:

Googling revealed this sort of problems is common for Vista and relates to Java (although SUN negates). Also I think it has something to do with DEP. I failed to find official Microsoft Kb.
So, the questions are:
What BEX stands for?
What is it about?
How to deal with such kind of errors?

BEX=Buffer overflow exception. See http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc738483.aspx for details. However, c000000d is STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER; the technet article talks primarily about status c0000005 or c0000409 (access violation/DEP)

Java and IE7 do not like to play together nicely. Just turn off DEP, it will work fine then.

go to internet explorer options/ advanced /security/ uncheck the box that says enable memory protection to mitigate attacks this will work it did for me

Most likely there is an addon that is messing with IE.
You can try this.
1. Open IE
2. Switch to the Advanced tab.
3. Click the Reset Internet Explorer Settings button.
4. Click Reset to confirm the operation.
5. Click Close when the resetting process finished.
6. Uncheck Enable third-party browser extensions option in the Settings box.
7. Click Apply, click OK.
After this, check to see if it works and if it does, enable one addon at a time until you find the culprit. Then uninstall it and reinstall it if you need it.

just try disabling the bing or msn toolbar - should do the trick.

JetBrains IDE Error on start : The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b)

I have got this error, but hardly could find the solution after 2 times reinstalling my IDE and even I installed 'All in One runtimes' but it couldn't help since I think the problem originally started after I changed few settings in windows defender setting and then tried to reset them.
But sure others have reported this problem and had no idea of what had happend all of a sudden to get following error when trying to run the application:
JetBrains IDE Error on start : The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b)
The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b)
*1 - which in my case was Phpstorm64.exe running on windows 10
I just felt there is no 'easy to find' solution for this occurring problem, so I decided to post it on Stackoverflow
In my case this was helpful and worked for me:
just disable ASLR (Address space layout randomization) from windows defender
in Windows 10 you should follow these steps:
open Settings (just right-click on windows start and choose
settings)
search for 'Windows Defender Settings' or just go to 'Update & Security' > 'Windows Security'
then open 'App & browser control', in the new opened window scroll down to the end to find 'Exploit protection settings', click
that
sort of settings will be shown and you can change the default settings. to create an exception you should click "Program settings"
(which doesn't seem to be a button,but it is!)
click 'add program to customize', in the dialog enter your ide name.exe (you can easily find it by clicking 'open file location' on
shortcut of the application)
in my case the application name was 'phpstorm64.exe'
next you have to look for 'force randomization for images (Mandatory ASLR)' check the 'override system settings' and switch it off and apply settings.
I'm not sure if it's needed,but turning off 'Randomize memory allocations (Bottom-up ASLR)' stated to work for others
I would appreciate if you help to get a complete solution for this problem , thanks
The crash is probably caused by ASLR Windows feature, the relevant ticket in the JetBrains issue tracker: IDEA-184029
Please check if the following workaround:
Turn the feature off globally or for a specific executable path https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/customize-exploit-protection
helps

How to disable "file risk warning prompt" in windows 7?

I'm trying to edit a document from an alfresco repository using MS word via the AOS module. Unfortunately I get a warning prompt about this all the time.
The message in the prompt reads to this effect:
Some files can harm the computer. If the file information below looks
suspicious or if you do not fully trust the source, then do not open
the file.
I have so far used inetcpl to configure the trusted sites for the intranet zones and added the domains to the following registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains
following the instructions from this site and some others (which all practically allude to the same thing) but so far I have had zero success in disabling the thing.
OS: windows 7
EDCM: Alfresco 5.2 with AOS
Browser: Internet Explorer 11
Your error message is not in English language, So it is difficult for us to understand which actual error you are getting.
If you are trying to open file via IE and getting security warning for opening a file then you can refer steps below to stop it.
(1) Open Internet Explorer.
(2) Go to Tools.
(3) Click on Internet Options.
(4) Select Security tab.
(5) Click button named as 'Custom level'.
(6) Find an option called 'Launching applications and unsafe files(not secure)'.
(7) Enable it.
(8) Restart the Internet Explorer.
Note: It is not recommended to enable this option for a security reason. You can try to make a test with it to check whether it can solve your issue or not.

Why does the VB6 IDE crash when opening a form?

The question is - why is my VB6 IDE crashing (all of a sudden) and how can I fix it?
VB6 had been operating on this PC, normally, for months if not years before this first began. The problem appeared to arise spontaneously.
Here's all the information I have to describe the issue...
Scenario:
Run VB6 - either by double clicking a project (VBP) file, or from it's icon / Start menu
Load a project
Try to open any form or code module
IDE instantly crashes with an error message such as:
An unhandled win32 exception occured in VB6.EXE [XXXX].
Allowing Windows to open the debugger, it shows the fault occurring on this line:
004581F1 mov ecx,dword ptr [eax]
And in the Windows event log, it shows this:
Problem signature:
Problem Event Name: APPCRASH
Application Name: vb6.exe
Application Version: 6.0.97.82
Application Timestamp: 403acf6c
Fault Module Name: vb6.exe
Fault Module Version: 6.0.97.82
Fault Module Timestamp: 403acf6c
Exception Code: c0000005
Exception Offset: 000afa89
OS Version: 6.2.9200.2.0.0.256.48
Locale ID: 1033
Additional Information 1: a239
Additional Information 2: a239f58f940977df1cec7176d1176bff
Additional Information 3: ef99
Additional Information 4: ef9908a42708e3d51b1220b5874297f1
O/S: Win7 64 bit
Note 1 - I think this is a different issue than this question: VB6 crashes after build, because the scenario to cause the crash is different.
Note 2 - I have seen a few signs of this problem elsewhere. Both here and here include some similar information, but no apparent solution.
Ultimately I found that I needed to reset the compatibility settings of VB6.exe.
Specifically:
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\VB98
Right click vb6.exe, right click, and select Properties
Select Compatibility tab
Mine was already set to run in Win XP compatibility mode. Uncheck this.
Close properties.
Run the EXE. Still not fixed.
Open properties. Set Win XP compat again.
Run VB6. Open project. Open form. No crash.
Note that rebooting, reinstalling VB6 and the latest service pack, etc. had no effect on this issue, all of which I tried before stumbling into this solution.

Firefox version 39 and selenium version 2.45
I tried mvn clean install for my project but firfox always crashes when running tests locally.
Any solutions?
According to information you provided it is security issue, Windows 7 complaining, wild guess there is some kind of pop-up which is blocking further interaction.
Try to update Selenium to the latest version which is 2.47.1, see if it helps.
If it was working on previous version of the Firefox, then try downgrade browser.
Follow the below steps to disable popup and error reporting. This will help the selenium tests to proceed further.
Steps to disable Mozilla crash popup
1.1 Turn Off Error Dialog through Group Policy Editor
Open the Group Policy Editor by typing gpedit.msc into the Start search box or the Run dialog.
Navigate to Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Error Reporting. Double click on “Prevent display of the user interface for critical errors” in the pane on the right.
Click on the radio button Enabled and then press OK.
1.2 Turn Off Error Dialog via Registry
Open the Registry Editor by typing regedit into the Start search box or the Win+R Run dialog.
Navigate to the following registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting
Double click the DontShowUI entry on the right and change its value to 1, then close the registry editor.
1.3 Disabling Windows Error Reporting
Go to Control Panel > Action Center > Change Action Center settings (top left) > Problem reporting settings.
Select “Never check for solutions” and click OK. Ask before checking also works because the dialog won’t appear to ask you.

Error in BIO read. Program will now exit

A message box periodically pops up with the title "Event Notification Application" and the text "Error in BIO read. Program will now exit"
Can anyone tell me what this error message is about? It occurs in a production environment and I have no idea where it's comming from.
Any clues very much appreciated!
We had this error message on an IBM xSeries and it was caused by the LSI MegaRAID Storage software. Use Process Explorer and check the properties of the pop up.
If it's actually BIO_read (with underscore), then it would be related to OpenSSL. Of course, whoever put the message there might have dropped the underscore - so I'd look for applications using the OpenSSL DLLs (libeay32.dll, libssl32.dll).
I've used Process Explorer to diagnose these issues before: start it when the message is showing, click the bullseye icon on the toolbar and hold it down, then drag over and release when the bullseye is on the target window. The process will be highlighted in the main program area. Also, check your Application event log for errors, and see if you have any services that are set for automatic startup that are not running after you close the error dialog.
For what it's worth, I'd bet this issue is related to an auto-updater for some software installed on your machine. Try to identify those auto-update services (I bet McAfee has one) and disable them for a time (if that's safe.) Only disable one at a time so you can be reasonably sure which one the culprit is; be sure to enable it if it is ruled out.
Best of luck!
Do you have norton installed? It seems to be related to Norton 2000's live update.
Try disabling that and see if the error goes away.
The culprit was some raid software.
