What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Use Windows 8
2. Enable ASLR either through the registry or EMET.
3. Launch an installer

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect the installer to start. Instead it immediately fails. See:

and

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Not sure of version. Maybe latest? This is on Windows 8.

Please provide any additional information below.
System wide ASLR is enabled through a registry setting or EMET:

I've only seen this with foobar2000 and Cloudfogger but some other installers may have issues. I'm posting here as I got redirected from here: http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=96936

    Sounds to me like it's a problem with the issproc.dll plug-in, but I've never heard of it before. Got any details on it?
