Buffer overflow in battlefield 1942 EA.Help.lnk

Not sure if this information is of any interest to anyone here...

I was playing with Filemon to figure out why a file would not delete on xp
desktop, after filemon told me that there was a sharing violation with
another app , I sorted that out but while looking through the list I came
across this "buffer overflow" and saw this line
I have never played this game and it has not been used since installed a few
months ago, so why is it "active" on my OS?
