 JZ> Yep, I can see the problem too. The exception is coming from the
 JZ> Apache POI library that Tika uses for parsing Microsoft file formats.
 JZ> Can you file a bug report about this in the POI issue tracker at [1]?
 JZ> The problem might be related to the already reported bug #47685 [2].

 JZ> [1] https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?product=POI
 JZ> [2] https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=47685

The problem is, that /LNK01612D14/Ole10Native entry is broken - it contains
wrong size of object name, stored in it....

 JZ> PS. For the record, the exception stack trace is included below.
