| Hi all,
|
| I just found a little bug in MS Outlook Express version 5.5 (probably
works
| on 5.0 aswell) : If a message with a lot of "."'s in the subject is opened
| or viewed (by single clicking it so it appears in the preview-pane) the
| program will crash. I verified this just on Windows 2000 Professional
| release and sp1. I don't know if this is exploitable, but well, it's nice
| to know :-)
|
| kind regards,
|
