Sounds like a hoax to generate page views to me (not the OP, he just got taken in by the scam).

It might, in theory, be possible to generate a buffer overrun in a badly-formed message, but Microsoft's current coding policies and the simplicity of what's allowed in the messages make that kind of exploit very hard to credit without a lot more evidence than forum posts.
 
I don't believe this at all and I want to see some hard, credible evidence in this claim. Posts in internet forums do not constitute as credible evidence.
