Can anybody reproduce this Bug?

Credit goes to Kris Kenney [MVP]:
1. Click on the Start button, and then click on Documents.
2. In the Search field, type "NOT Documents" (without the quotes).
3. Click on the "Save Search" button and save the search query as "Search
Test".
Windows Explorer will then terminate unexpectedly.

Hello the bug is called "vista" and they are reproducing it on DVDs as we
speak spreading it like a bad virus


http://www.activewin.com/awin/commen...ineIndex=42119

At a time where everyone is anxiously awaiting the upcoming service pack for
Windows Vista (and while others flock back to Windows XP in droves), yet
another flaw in the Windows Vista operating system has been discovered that
can bring the Windows shell ("Windows Explorer") to its knees within 20
seconds. Even worse, this issue occurs under every day usage of the
operating system if you use the Search function regularly with boolean
search operators.

1. Click on Start, and then click on Documents.

2. In the Search entry box, type "NOT Shortcut" (without the quotes).

3. Click on the "Save Search" button and save the search query as "Search
Test".

This has been confirmed as a flaw in Windows Vista (all editions) and
Windows Vista 64-bit (all editions), and even worse, the issue still occurs
on the latest release candidate for Service Pack 1. The bigger question is,
will Microsoft step up to the plate and fix this issue or will they let it
pass on by while they work heavily on Windows "7", ignoring the fact that
Windows Vista still has flaws and inconsistancies that are seeing larger
companies hold back deployment until 2009 or even skip Vista?

Andre:
I duplicated the bug on Vista x64. Problem reports referred to
"Technical Information
Performance and Reliability Pack (KB938979)" for the solution. Have a great
day.

Sorry Dennis,

I already had the KB938979 update installed, and it still did it when I
ran the test.
