When attempting to profile a web application, the browser may show an error similar to "could not connect to the remote server" after the browser is launched by ANTS Memory Profiler.

Cause / Possible causes

When Internet Explorer runs in Protected Mode, it may launch an instance of Internet Explorer that quickly exits and restarts before showing the website. This makes ANTS Memory Profiler believe that profiling had been completed, making it shut the site down.

How to fix

If your web browser uses "Protected Mode" you may try adding "localhost" to the list of trusted sites as a workaround.
