Notepad Conspiracy Bug

As every one knows about the Notepad Defect 4-3-3-5 letters crashes the notepad. If not follow the things
1. Create a notepad file
2. Type "bcd efg hij klmno" (Without quotes)
(You can try any combination like "this api can break", "this cat can split", "jane can not dance", "text wit hou tcaps" and "xxxx xxx xxx xxxxx".)
3. Save the notepad (with any name)with any one of the above mentioned phrase
4. Open the same notepad file again and verify that notepad crashes.

This is because of the ASCII to UNICODE conversion problem happening in Windows not in notepad.
