Moroons... 'KILL YOURSELF'...... LET'S SWITCH TO THE TOPIC ANYWAY! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- i am using windowsxp at the moment!!! the most surprising thing is... SOMETIMES! wordpad.exe crashes after executing the 'test.rtf' and sometimes... test.rtf opens but strangely ..... with garbage on the content [whose letter size is 0 so copy... paste the garbage to... see it's content!!!] MORE SURPRISING... [you must be dam lucky.....] try opening the test.rtf several times! if you are lucky and it doesn't crash and open...... TRY, monitoring its content......... WELL, the garbage info. dispalyed in the file DOES CHANGE!!! IF YOU successfully try this several......... times!!! <can anyone explain me why does the garbage info. change if sometime it manage to successfully open, and how is it generated???> seems like the tag that determines the size of file [ie: fs] get's mad... when it get's an invalid file size....... code! save it as *.rtf if you don't wish to download the file....... ------------------- {\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\deff0\deflang1033{\fonttbl{\f0\fswiss\fcharset0 Arial;}} \viewkind4\uc1\pard\f0\fs9999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA\fs20\par } -------------------- WHAT DO YOU SAY!!! please download the........... http://www.geocities.com/visitbipin/test.rtf _____________________________________________________________ Secure mail ---> http://www.blackcode.com _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
