OK, thanks, though I'd like to ask, if it's not a big offtopic, how viruses can exploit my internal function? I can it understand, when viruses send something illegal to a webserver, which has flaws in the request processing routine, but in my case it's an internal function, which, of course, should check the buffer size, but how it could be accessible for a virus?

Thanks to all others, who replied.
