  This is proof of concept code only, but theoretically could be any

  shifting around a few offsets yields code that works under Windows NT
  4.0 and Win9X.

Our proof of concept code will not give you a working test for the
vulnerability on NT 4.0, 95, 98, mill. edition or even all versions of Win
2000. Just because the key is not created don't think that you are not
vulnerable. As far as we know all versions of Clip Art Gallery shipped
with these products are effected: Office 2000, Home Publishing 2000, Works
2000, Picture It! 2000, and PhotoDraw? 2000 Version 1.
