This is somewhat of a guessing question... because I can't recall what the

feature is, but here goes.

 

I have a Windows 2003 Server with SP2 installed - recently I installed a

Third Party Piece of software that created a Windows Service.

 

During a reboot, a dialog box was presented to me related to the exe of the

service, I had two choices (checkboxes at the top) One was related to letting

the server manage the other was something like allow all but the ones that I

select, and then under that was a list box and there was a single entry in

the list box that showed the exe name of the service.

 

I left the setting alone, which I think was allow all but what I chose, I am

not sure. I cannot for the life of me recall what this dialog box was

called, how to get back to it, and how to cofigure it.

 

I something like DEF sticks in my mind, but I don't know. Is there a dialog

box that controls or protects services and how they are accessed? Or if by

what I have described, if there is a different dialog box that would present

me with these choices related to a service, how do I get to it?

 

I know this is like a needle in a hay stack... but perhaps someone smarter

than I can figure out what I am talking about.

 

THanks

RE: Protected Services

 

I figured out what it was - DEP, Data Execution Prevention, apparently I

didn't check the box for my third party service that was causing an issue, so

when the service restarted - I was getting memory errors.

 

I think I have it now.
