This is not quite any real security issue i think, but itīs plain annoying so i couldnīt resist to post it here. I came across the following link today:

<< Will crash all instances of unpatched IE >>

http://www.blacklisted.nl/~ruben/why_you_s...e_IE_or_OE.html

and here is how it works:

This page should be fatal for most HTML-displaying Microsoft Crapware

The part that kills your OE/IE is:

[input type crash]

For some reason specifying an invalid control name is enough to crash the most popular and technically speaking most superior browser.

Use Mozilla to see how inferior products handle html.
