[fpc-pascal] TProcess does not work in Windows XP

Thank you, this is my new code and while it's working good on Windows
7 it doesn't on Windows XP :(.

procedure TBurpClient.Run;
begin
  fOurProcess.Options := [poUsePipes] + [poNoConsole];
  fOurProcess.Execute;
  while fOurProcess.Running do
  begin
    // make sure we have room
    fMemStream.SetSize(fBytesRead + READ_BYTES);
    // try reading it
    fNumBytes := fOurProcess.Output.Read((fMemStream.Memory +
fBytesRead)^, READ_BYTES);
    Inc(fBytesRead, fNumBytes);
  end;

  fMemStream.SetSize(fBytesRead);
  fOutputLines := TStringList.Create;
  fOutputLines.LoadFromStream(fMemStream);
  fOutputLines.SaveToFile('output.txt');
  CommandOutput := fOutputLines.Text;
  faStringList.Assign(fOutputLines);
  fObjectList.Add(fOutputLines);
  Inc(fIndexOfOL);
  Inc(fIndexOfOL);
//  fOutputLines.Free;
end;
