Sorry for not being specific. Ask WaxDragon about it. TCPIP returns 
STATUS_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL sometimes and PendingReturned == 0, so your code 
doesn't write the IOSB at all, so the guy waiting for the IRP never gets 
a valid status.

You've also avoided replying to the scenarios I presented. I think it's 
unfair that I must waste time I could spend on furthering development to 
write a driver because you will not trust me.
