So does this mean M$ is considered to be a threat?

No, it means some bit of software has called the host process to execute some code, congrats, you're infected

lol If it wasn't for DEP then you'd be some "zombie" to inflict a DDoS or spam relay for the masses and your PC wouldn't even know about it.
You can tell DEP what programs to ignore but I would advise that you do not even touch that or else judging by that picture you'll be a mass infected worm haven within 2 minutes
so...you think maybe Myth's opened an email from someone he doesn't know then?
or maybe a hundred of them
It could have been anything really. A dodgy p2p file (lets not discuss this section any further), A friends PC thats sent a virus (I've seen this one loads in the past), or even a worm sent via MSN.so...you think maybe Myth's opened an email from someone he doesn't know then?

Keep your AV up-to-date, keep your wits on "sharp" and keep yourself aware to the "dangers" and most the time you'll be safe (thats unless you reinstall windows and forget to remove the ethernet so your all naked to the interweb for 30 seconds....
As for DEP - Its a godsend. A step in the right direction as this has closed a fair few methods a lot of the worms were using for infection. Shame it wasn't released sooner.
at least Uncle Bill Gates is trying to sort us out
Hardly, it protects against very few attacks. If it was so good it would be on every add for intel/AMD, its not because they know it's pretty useless..As for DEP - Its a godsend.

If they knew it was "pretty useless", then why would they put it there in the first place?
it _IS_ used in AMD adverts, and certainly is touted as a feature by companies like Time & Tiny in their print ads.
intel don't advertise about it because, well... they'd need to have chips capable of doing it, wouldn't they
Could it be wrong? After all I have Symantic corp. instaled and its upto date... I also dont open strange emails nor tdo I have frends!
i never seem to get viruses
but on the flip side of that, i dont have any anti virus software to detect them....oh oh
however, i dont usually have the same install of windows on my pc for more than about 6 months-because i get so annoyed at the amount of junk on my desktop
i like having a nice tidy os to work with

Symantec products suck, there crap, trust me on this. You need more than antivirus to protect yourself from viruses. I would call it common sense, but, well i guess its not for some peopleCould it be wrong? After all I have Symantic corp. instaled and its upto date... I also dont open strange emails nor tdo I have frends!
