does dep work optout mode

Does DEP work in OptOut mode?

Apps that should be killed by DEP don't get killed when it's in OptOut mode.
Reproduce with the following method:
1. Set DEP to OptOut i) Open a command prompt as Administrator, and type the following command: bcdedit.exe /set {current} nx OptOut 2. Reboot 3. Load up MSN Messenger 7 (v7.5.0324 to be precise) 4. Load a Java or Shockwave app in IE.
MSN/IE work. Now force DEP on:
1. Set DEP to AlwaysOn i) Open a command prompt as Administrator, and type the following command: bcdedit.exe /set {current} nx AlwaysOn 2. Reboot 3. Load up MSN Messenger - it's DEP'd 4. Load a Java or Shockwave app in IE - it's DEP'd
In OptOut mode IE and MSN Messenger should get killed by DEP. I can't believe they actually OptOut!
