I could not replicate this bug on windows 2000 machine. I also tried 
to replicate the bug on windows XP, but could not replicate the bug. 

I followed the steps given by author. Every time I press enter, the 
font size changes to 999 but systen doesnot crash.

The configurations of machines I used, are:

OS: Windows XP, processor: AMD 1500+, memory: 256Mb RAM.
OS: Windows 2000, processor: Pentium-4, memory: 128Mb RAM.

May be the bug is configuration related. More information is needed 
about the configuration that author used. We should try replicating 
this bug on lower confguration machines.

I seem to recall a similar bug being fixed, but can't find it in IZ.

In any case, this works for me with OOo1.1beta2 and WinMe; 
I can't crash it.
Raj, if this still happens for you with OOo1.1rc1 (due out any week
now), please send in a crash log, and we'll reopen this issue.
Thanks!
