Re: Windows XP mmc.exe Crash

On Win2k SP3 the result, when logged in as both administrator or as a normal
user, on the local domain or machine-locally, was the expected windows
message for disallowed resource access, or for failure to find the remote
host, in the case of administrator access.

The string lengths used were 100, 150, and 200 characters, in succession.
None of these resulted in a crash.
