Due to the fact that I have very little time: When I first looked through
the code, I wasn't sure whether the loop alwas terminates and deferred
it to later (which isn't now unfortunately). We need a value that is decreased
for every pass we make. On a superficial glance, in case of maformed packets
the counter may remain the same (offset). The moment you guarantee that
offset increases for every run or that the loop terminates in case that
the offset was not increased during the loop, then everything is fine with me.

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
