Apparently AUX/CON/others are special reserved names or something back from the old days of Windows, which proves that 
Microsoft has done very little in the way of developing the Windows operating system. I also followed through with the 
"Microsoft Help and Support Center" link to helpful info about fixing this problem, and I got this:

Thanks, M$ for so accurately pinpointing the problem. The line I *really* like from this response is:

> A newer version of Internet Explorer is available. This update may not fix the error you reported, but

Wow, gee, thanks!

I'm sure this will be fixed and its really no big deal, so what if you can crash a single ie window?
