You don't have to mess with the menu. If written correctly, why would it
crash? As long as I know what processor you are running (And I'll guess by
saying it is a Intel processor and be correct 90% of the time.), getting it
to execute anything would be easy by inserting the correct 80X86 assembly
instructions. Very trivial to perform using basic hacker buffer overflow
techniques. (There are a plethora of generic routines to exploit buffer
overflows for a variety of processors. Once I know the buffer size of the
mail file attachment field, I just need to "plug and play" these generic
routines in the location following the location that creates the overflow.
It is a very common exploit these days to go after buffer overflows.)
You're only hope would be if your ISP is prescanning the header for
non-printable ASCII characters (if you are foolish enough to think this is
in the realm of black helicopters).
While "WIN A HOLIDAY" is a hoax, the techniques they describe a very real.
Sorry to ramble off topic. I just hated to see Mike get plastered for
something that IS a real problem.
