This does not crash on me, and I can't see a likely mechanism of action
that would lead to a DoS condition. 

It did hang Firefox 2.0.0.4 (32 bit) at my place (Microsoft Vista, x64). The browser did not respond, and had to be 
killed. Looks like DoS to me.
Yep, firefox stops to respond because this script opens 10000 new
windows. Following that way I can say, that i found DoS in Word, because
when I tried to open 10000 documents it also stopped to respond.
