I didn't start D7 for a few days, and now I'm unable to start it, better, I can't go into the IDE any longer. Task manager shows up delphi32.exe for a few seconds, the task bar icon appears, and then it disappears without any error message. On the same machine, I have also D5 installed. When starting D5 after successful D7 activity, D5 asks me if I would change the settings for the Just-In-Time debugger (where I'm responding Yes). Vice versa, after working on D5 projects, closing D5 and opening D7, D7 asks me the same thing. When I now started D5, responded Yes to the question, closed D5 successfully and tried to start D7, the question for the Just-In-Time debugger appears (I choose Yes), but D7 IDE won't start. I had the same problem on another D5 installation a few weeks ago, and the only option was to reinstall D5 :-( I didn't change anything to the D7 or Windows environment, I didn't add or change components (as far as I know), so how can I get it working again or where to look for problems? Any help is greatly appreciated!

I also tried to re-install update #1 - installation had no errors but D7 won't still start. I forgot to mention it's D7 Architect.

And indeed it was MS Security Hotfix 840987 - after deinstallation, the problem's gone and I can restart D7 again. But what are the drawbacks deinstalling this hotfix? Does anyone know the exact reason why this hotfix prevents D7 from starting/working? Does anyone know if MS is about to fix this or if Borland issues a workaround for the (unknown) problem? Any help or info would be greatly appreciated!
