Besides the fact that "Copy message to its own buffer" is no longer present in the latest bitcoin code and CDataStream::ignore is no longer used, this is odd. Seems like nMessageSize is not correct even though it is checked before.

Looks like I can reproduce this error, or something similar using the 32-bit client (v1.1.0.0), running on an x86-64 build of Windows 8.1:

I found the commit where this is taken out of the code. I don't see any reason why we should not update to this commit.

Fully agree

[presstab]

Added two updates, and will see if I can port over some more of them over time. Question now is whether or not this actually solves the problem or if it will manifest somewhere else. My wallet is behaving normally, but I never had this problem to begin with.
