SYMPTOMS
When the Internet News Server (INS) receives news feeds with large headers, a general protection fault (GPF) may occur. Although not specifically indicated, the estimated header size is 4 KB.



RESOLUTION
A code bug in Nntpsvc.dll causes this problem. To resolve this problem, upgrade the INS servers with Service Pack 1 for MCIS v1.0. This will update the Nntpsvc.dll file.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Commercial Internet System version 1.0. This problem has been corrected in the latest U.S. Service Pack for Microsoft Commercial Internet System version 1.0. For information on obtaining the Service Pack, query on the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
