Thanks for that. Was a very interesting read on possible security issues
on Vista.

I think this link should work. Our web services are down this morning so

>From the quick read I had yesterday its a new security feature in Vista
to stop malicious software from creating havoc in shared memory. As
already mentioned services run in session 0 therefore I believe there
was some code provided in this article to get around the security issue
with global shared memory. Bloody frustrating at present as I cant get
back on the web this morning to follow up. :(
