On a windows xp sp2
opened the zip file -> no crash
opened the subfile -> no crash
traversed one level up -> crash

Almost identical behavior when explorer is attached to OllyDbg
but explorer is being respawned when the debugger is closed.

its too late for me to check it in detail, anyone else might have more
clues.
also Kristian didnt mentioned how those machines were crashed as it may be
due to some issues with this machine.
