One line of html code to crash Winblows

Bossieman:
I found out that some people have seriously big problems with this bug. One person posted this on another forum.


--- Quote from: Hajiku Flip ---For the record, this link totally fvcked my computer. It froze at first and the mobo started making weird noises. Then I restarted and it would freeze on the desktop screen, with none of my shortcuts appearing. Things started going downhill with drives showing up missing, windows repair installs messing up, etc etc.

I ended up having to wipe EVERYTHING and now I have a fresh copy of windows.

But they used another link that is founded on this page

So it seams like some windows computers have serious problems. But not all. Does anyone know why some windows computers collapses and other doesnt?

Pathos:
WinXP SP2 + FF 1.0.4 + nVidia FX5200 = stall and requires restart

I suppose it just ran out of memory :). Probably attempted to allocate loads of Virtual Memory to make up for it.

This is so stupid. I'm pretty sure the Linux Kernel kills/suspends a process if this happens, my lecturer attempted to overrun the stack but the kernel builders were too smart for him. However this is a heap problem.
