  Hi!

  I've found a bug in Word 2003, that could possibly lead to a buffer overflow.
  To reproduce the bug, you have simply to create a document with a word of 32 or 33 characters (letters or numbers), followed by "." and some other character. Ex.:

01234567890123456789012345678901. Test

  The text above should crash MS Word 2003, with Buffer Overrun error.
  This bug was tested in Microsoft Office Word 2003 (11.6568.6568) SP2, brazilian portuguese.
  Regards,

  Guilherme M. Dalpian
