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,

Ruud van Buren
