The Host Integration Server (HIS) 2000 End User Client experiences an access
violation in SNABASE.exe. If DRWTSN32.exe is configured as the default debugger
on the system that is running the HIS 2000 End User Client, information similar
to the following will appear in the Drwtsn32.log file after the access violation
occurs:

Application exception occurred:

CAUSE
=====

A small timing window exists in the HIS 2000 End User Client transport dynamic
link libraries (DLLs) that may allow two threads to close and reset the security
context handles simultaneously when SNABASE.exe closes its sponsor connection.
