Re: [Mingw-msys] touch.exe is not working and is causing XP to crash

[Joe F. <fl...@so...>]

Yeah Joel, thanks. For my machine at work, touch.exe does not work 
outside of MSYS either. At home, the exact same at-work MSYS directory 
structure works fine.

I'm still investigating but it looks like they are more dependencies 
showing up in Dependency Walker (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/256872) 
when I "profile" touch.exe on my work machine rather than my home 
machine - and I think that may be the key. There may be anti-virus hooks 
(real-time protection) or something like that that is causing the 
problem. I'll probably disable or un-install my anti-virus program at 
work and reboot to see if that will isolate the problem.
