   FramePtr  RetAddr   Param1   Param2   Param3   Function Name
   252afaf4  0042cc1c  252afb18 000001c5 252afb0c STORE!EcRpc+0xfb8

CAUSE

An incorrect remote procedure call (RPC) buffer size setting from server to client communications causes corruption of memory, which in turn can shut down the information store.
