DESCRIPTION:
There is a problem with the way Windows (tested with Win98 and Win2k Server) handles shortcut (.lnk) files.
A specially crafted shortcut will crash explorer.exe/shell32.dll.
A shortcut, say, A.lnk is created and it is made to point to another shortcut B.lnk. Then, B.lnk is made to point to A.lnk. Now when the folder containing these two files is viewed or accessed in any way, explorer crashes.
