Symptoms

Assume that you install the hotfix that is described in Microsoft Knowledge Base (KB) article 2548554 on an FTP client computer that is running Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008. However, when you connect the computer to an FTP server, and then use the Ftp.exe command-line tool to manipulate files, the Ftp.exe command-line tool crashes.

Cause

This issue occurs because heap corruption occurs when you use the Ftp.exe command-line tool to manipulate files.
