Hey, what's up everyone? I was going to post this question in the "newbie questions" form but I put it in 'Misc. Security Discussions" instead.. I was hopeing some one could help me with buffer overflows. Don't start sending flames cause you had to learn and ask some one else also at one point in time.
Any who, I did some researching at Google and fount a site that helped explane what a buffer_overflow is but I'm still wondering if this would be considered a buffer_overflow or not?Here's what I fount:

Buffer Overflow

A buffer overflow occurs when a program or process tries to store more data in a buffer (temporary data storage area) than it was intended to hold. Since buffers are created to contain a finite amount of data, the extra information - which has to go somewhere - can overflow into adjacent buffers, corrupting or overwriting the valid data held in them. Although it may occur accidentally through programming error, buffer overflow is an increasingly common type of security attack on data integrity. In buffer overflow attacks, the extra data may contain codes designed to trigger specific actions, in effect sending new instructions to the attacked computer that could, for example, damage the user's files, change data, or disclose confidential information. Buffer overflow attacks are said to have arisen because the C programming language supplied the framework, and poor programming practices supplied the vulnerability.

Ok, now, after reading that I fount that you can crash Yahoo! messenger by sending a message to all of your friends and pressing Ctrl+G which is supposed to send a Buzz! wake up message to the recipient.. But instead, I got this error message:

This program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down. If the problem persists, contact the program vendor.

Any one have a clue as to what that says?
