How to exploit unhandled exception

Can you paste some of the information from the debugger about the
unhandled exception?  It's hard to answer the question generically as it
really depends on what type of exception you're triggering and how the
data you're sending relates to the exception that is generated.

Hello,

i poked around a bit with a daemon service on xp.
When sending special chars the attached debugger stops and reports an
unhandled exception.
As i'm new to exploit writing ( well i manage to write exploits for
buffer overflows ) , i don't know how to get control of daemon app using
unhandled exception.

How to do this ?
Where can i find examples for exploiting this kind of exception ?

thx
Thomas
