This is really weird, that stack is corrupt as well.

Try running the application through a memory analyzer (something like
valgrind on linux, not sure what the equivalent would be for windows).
Maybe it'll show where the stack is being overwritten. Double check
array usage in your application to see if anything is writing past the
end of an array or something similar.

HTH,
Dave
