Hello all,
I've compiled this and the other two exploits and tested
against two win98 (original not SE) machines and they
remained perfectly up and active. I then ran Conseal PC
Firewall ver. 1.35 on one machine and it didn't even pick up
any incoming packets.
No i'm not behind any firewalls (besides the one i put up
myself to see if anything is even going on).
Has anyone actually been afected by this "DoS", or been able
to reproduce this bug on thier system(s)?

Windows 98's TCP/IP stack chokes on fragmented IGMP packets.
There is an
exploit out there called "fawx" that supposedly exploits
this problem,
but I haven't had any success crashing Windows with it.
Recently I was
given source to a program that reliably crashed
Win98/98SE/2000 build 2000
and challenged my friend defile to see who could write a
version of it
utilizing handcrafted igmp/ip headers for source spoofing
support. Here is
the resulting code that works against most systems with one
or two tries.
