I'm trying to use Purify 6 to analyze a memory corruption in one of our executables built with VC++ 2003 (7.1). When I instrument the binary with the command: purify /Replace=yes /Run=no myprog.exe The instrumentation aborts telling me the executable was incrementally linked.

(c) perform some sort of complex updates in the database (d) produc...
While the installation of our software, on at least one PC, some files are replaced by html content and python of exactly the same size of the previous file, the creation date is exactly the same as others files.
