Only the message ... no shutdown ... no crash. I also use Win Pro. Could the problem be OS dependent? When MSIE6 saw the test image it gave that message and asked for information, please. Once the information had been transmitted, MSIE closed. When Opera6 saw it, it opened and displayed with no comment or problem. Both in WinXP Home with all patches up to but not including the Massive Patch 2. -- Frank ess It seems to be totaly browser dependant. I have IE 4.0 and Mozilla 1.7a on Win98SE. IE shows an error (with the option of "close" or "details"). Mozilla just shows the pic of the smiling woman with no problems. |

Hi Microsoft has recently started a campaign to update their software for an error in JPEG processing: Microsoft Security Bulletin MS04-028 Buffer Overrun in JPEG Processing (GDI+) Could Allow Code Execution (833987): http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sec.../MS04-028.mspx They claim that after the update their software is secure. However, this is WRONG! The reason is that they don't fix another fatal JPEG processing error in their software which is known for years and which can be reproduced by trying to open the following image file with Microsoft Explorer or other softwa http://sylvana.net/test/AP4.jpg Opening this image file with faulty JPEG software can crash the application or even the system! The error was solved in 1998 with release 6b of the Independent JPEG Group software, but there are still many applications in use, like Microsoft's Internet Explorer, which haven't been updated and thus crash with this error. Software based on IJG's v6b JPEG software library, which is available since 1998, is not affected by this problem. Regards Guido On WinXP SP1, Nutscrape 7.2 okay, MS Internet Exploder 6.0 exploded. -- jer email reply - I am not a 'ten' "All that we do is touched with ocean, yet we remain on the shore of what we know." -- Richard Wilbur |
