+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. 
+using System;
+class t1
+{   
+    static void Main(string [] args )
+      { 
+        string brokenB64 = "AB~£";
+        Convert.FromBase64String(brokenB64);
+      }
+}
+
+2. Compile
+3. Run
+
+Actual Results:
+
+Unhandled Exception: System.IndexOutOfRangeException: Array index is out of
+range

+System.Convert:FromBase64CharArray (char[],int,int)
+in [0x00018] (at
+/home/sheldon/hacking/mono/raw_cvs/mcs/class/corlib/System/Convert.cs:117)
+System.Convert:FromBase64String (string)
+in <0x00013> .t1:Main (string[])
+
+
+Expected Results:
+
+Unhandled Exception: System.FormatException
+
+Additional Information:
+
+The problem is with looking up the encoded data in the lookup tables. They
+seem to assume that they will only get valid data.
+
+I might look into creating a better Base64 handling class at the weekend.
