I have 2 apps that I made, and compressed with UPX.
They work fine on Windows 7 x86 and x64
But on Windows Server 2008 R2 they throw a send error to microsoft.

The uncompressed versions work fine.

    Hi,

    Can you attach one of the files?

    Thanks,L

    Unfortunately I do not have access to Windows Server 2008 R2, so I only have a guess now. Can you try using the --strip-relocs=0 option when compressing your file?

    I used that option to compress the exe
    1 out of ten loads of the app, throws a send errror to microsoft

    In this case I'm not sure what's happening. Can you send me some more information (crash location, register values)?
