More browser bugs.

Following all the IE bugs postings:
The code below will make any browser "go nuts", however, if you press
escape on netscape 4 (STOP) - it stops - IE 4, however... does not. CPU
goes up, mem usage goes up - etc. Tested with win95, NT+SP3 4.0
workstation, and NT 4.0+SP3 Server.

Minimizing won't work either, on NT the window unminimizes itself, on 95
the minimized task-bar "jumps" around.

One more interesting thing: Explorer lets you position the window out of
the screen's range (in a position thats "out" of the screen) - netscape
doesnt.
(you can also change the minx/miny numbers to a negative values - and it
"works" with IE.)
