Subject: an observation.

Hi,

When given following command from root directory of
any drive (c:\, d:\, etc.,)it throws below given
error. 

Command:

c:\> write
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

no. of A's should be exactly 256 

Error:

---------------------------
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
---------------------------
Runtime Error!

Program: C:\Program Files\Windows
NT\Accessories\WORDPAD.EXE

abnormal program termination

---------------------------
OK   
---------------------------

Dont know if its any security breach. I am yet a
newbie in this field, so not able to analyze much.

Tested platform: Windows 2000 Server SP:3

It would be great if you guys give me with some links
to learn about discovering and exploiting
vulnerability or about penetration testing of
application/network.

Thanks,

Gaurang.
