Curious. Tested with firefox 0.9.3 and latest IE with XPSP2, seemingly
does nothing. The image is blank, right? I can scroll to the bottom
right of the page and back in both browsers. IE claims a syntax error
on the page, that's about it.

firefox .9.3 on windows XP with intel VGA and the

There have been reports the exploit doesn't triggered
via. a Opera Browser.



Image itself is not big html resizing of it is big.

Hi Bipin,

I tested this on Win2k (5.00.2195) with Service Pack
4,
using Firefox 0.9.3.

I am using a Matrox G400 video card, driver version
5.82.18.0.

Firefox went completely crazy when I went to that
URL!  I had to remove the power from my PC in order
to recover.  I haven't tested it with IE yet, I
think it will probably do the same thing.

Whatever it is you have found, it's pretty nasty :-)

Best Regards,

Simon Hailstone
