Hi,

VDAgent in Windows 7 guest gets terminated when mouse hovers on some applications like Kaspersky Anti-virus tool. 
Noticed SendInput Windows API fails whenever any mouse operation performs on this tool. "handle_mouse_event" method returns with failure due to this and causes VDAgent to terminate.


Initially, I thought it is UIPI ie., Process Integrity Level issue and observed as follows:
VDService with SYSTEM a/c creates VDAgent with SYTEM a/c
Kaspersky tool is service-based app with SYSTEM a/c creates process to handle UI with logged-on user and with 'Medium' Integrity level.

Don't understand why SendInput API fails even VDAgent with higher integrity level than Kaspersky tool?
Is there any other way to make VDAgent works for all applications installed in windows guest?

Thanks\Naga.
