maybe I have formulated badly this question. I mean that if we can overwr=
ite return address of the function properly ( without access violation ) =
then we can overwrite SEH properly ( without access violation ) and if we=
 can overwrite SEH properly then we can overwrite return address properly=
. So it seems ( for me ) that SEH overwrite is equivalent to  return addr=
ess overwrite. Since return address is more simple to handle, so there is=
 no need to play with SEH. So why hackers play with it? ( I talk there on=
ly about defualt SEH, which is encountered during access violation - i.e =
http://www.milw0rm.com/exploits/4651 ) Maybe I miss something very import=
ant there.=0D
