Right -- in Win2K SP4 clicking on [Program] tab of Properties
window causes "access violation" -- the memory at 0x00000000 could not be
"read" by SHELL32.DLL. MSVC++, acting as a debugger, shows a mixture of
KERNEL32, COMCTL32, USER32, SHELL32 and SHLWAPI in stack trace.
Disassembly window shows that there was an attempt to read dword
at [EAX] (EAX=0). So at first glance this doesn't seem to be trivially
exploitable, but I'm not a win32 expert, and intuition suggests that there
must be a way.
