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\conThe problem seems to be related to whether you have permissions to access the AUX device or not. I couldn't freeze explorer on my notebook where I don't have permissions to the aux device, but could on a co-workers machine in which we could access the aux device from the command line.
Which factors (default install?) influence the users permissions on the aux-device? Sebastian -- _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it. Charter: http://lists.netsys.com/full-disclosure-charter.html
