Add this line of code in and see if the array will delete:

pBuffer[26627664] = '\0';

>pBuffer[26627664] = '\0';
You've got an off-by-one error. Do try to remember that array indexing in C is based on an offset, not an item count. pBuffer[0] is the first item, so pBuffer[N-1] is the last item, and pBuffer[N] is an overflow error.

>Char* pBuffer = (Char*)new BYTE[26627664];
How are BYTE and Char defined?
