Unhandled exception in qatomic

've decided to make a text searching utility in Qt as an excercise. I have a problem however. I've just reformatted my computer, and I took a backup of my Visual Studio projects. Now when I try to exit my application by the X in the upper right corner I get this message for Visual Studio:
"Unhandled exception at 0x004044e9 in Qt Text Searcher.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation writing location 0xfeeefeee."
Visual Studio also says CX0030: Error: Expression cannot be evaluated

Visual Studio then points me to the following line in qatomic.h:
"{ return _InterlockedDecrement(reinterpret_cast<volatile long *>(ptr)); }"

How can I help this? To my knowing I have not used any Atomic counters (I am not even sure what it is)

Did you recompile your application after reformatting? Also check if all examples bundled with Qt work ok.

Yes I did recompile. The examples bundled with works fine

Could you post the backtrace?

backtrace? I can upload the whole project if that would help. It's about 9 MB large

No, we definitely prefer a backtrace, it'll only be few lines long :)

Ah well then, what is a backtrace? :)

A backtrace is... a backtrace :) Also called a call stack or stack trace or whatever. It is a list of function calls that led to the crash. A debugger produces it.

Hmm I guess this is a backtrace then :)

[EDIT] What the hell?!? Why does the application load Internet Download Manager?

In VS2005: "Debug->Windows->Call Stack", select all, copy and paste here.. ;)

No, it's not :) This is a log of loading symbols from imported libraries into the debugger.

Maybe it's some kind of trojan or spyware? Try AdAware.

Right, this should be a backtrace then :)

Yes, that's it.

The problem occurs in QVector<char *> destructor that is invoked from main() on line 104. Do you know which QVector<char *> this might be? Maybe you are deleting something twice?

I may be find the solution,or not.

Goto C:\WINDOWS\system32,and change the name of xpsp2res.dll to others for invalid the xps services.
And clear the windows memory using "360åŠ é€Ÿçƒ".

In Visual Studio 2010, press F5.
All is fine.
