Slack 10 Winblows 98- Reboot


I was messing around on my network today and I was practicing some methods of intrusion. I came across something very odd. Windows 98 Crashes when I nmap scan it from my Slack 10 system. I can't pinpoint the reason exactly but anyone have any ideas?

It's a Microsoft product - you were expecting stability?

If I had to hazard a guess, I'd say you overflowed the buffer.........and as I'm sure you know, Win98 has big time mem management issues - which almost always lead to the BSOD....
