Cause

This issue occurs because the Exchange server incorrectly inserts an additional semicolon (;) character to certain properties that are used by the VSAPI 2.6 protocol. When the antivirus software uses these certain VSAPI properties, the additional semicolon causes an unhandled exception. Therefore, the Store.exe process crashes.
