If you enter C:\aux in the adressline of the IE (not EXPLORER,
InternetExplorer) and hit enter, the window will freeze. This bug
is simmilar to C:\con\con

I can reproduce on 6.0.2800.1106.xpsp2.030422-1633 (XP Home)

For those who those you might need non-US version to have the bug, I
think that is incorrect.

(FWIW, I was also able to reproduce with IE6 on W2K Pro)
