Wow, didn't think of that. Of course it crashes the preview in the file explorer as well :-)

God damn hippies at Redmond keep amazing me every day :-)

Well is it really surprising that an *Internet Explorer bug* affects Internet Explorer, but not another browser?

Bugs which arise from things like coding mistakes are generally very unlikely to appear in exactly the same form in different programs; this isn't like comparing features. Don't get me wrong - I prefer Opera and am using it now, but that's not because of it being more stable (I've come across webpages which crash it that worked fine on IE).

Hm.. I've read the article on "theinquirer" two days ago.
Unfortunately this "trick" doesn't do anything to my IE6 (on XP with latest updates).

For those for who this trick works, besides "crash" you can type anything you like i.e. "IE sucks".
The bug works for every program that uses shlwapi.dll (Outlook, Frontpage) so it isn't IE's fault, rather bug in the lib.

Anyways, Opera7.10 rulz for me.

Win2000 Server SP3 with IE6.0.2800.1106 - crashes with error message and bug submission requestor.

Win2003 Enterprise Server (RC2) with IE6.0.3718.0 - cleanly exits IE completely with no error message.

www.Fails.org is pretty good, too. It doesn't crash your browser, but it will make both IE and Mozilla use up more than 300+ megs of RAM and make your computer crawl.

That's good, but better yet, running IE6 under Windows XP, I get a crash when visiting Microsoft.com (just the main page as far as I can tell).

With Windows 2003 Server Enterprise Edition (RTM) with IE 6.0.3790.0 - it resulted in a blank web page while visiting www.fails.org.
