Windows 2000 SP4 (IE 5.00.3700.1000)
iexplore.exe takes 99% CPU for a while and then asks if you want to abort a
script that "is causing Internet Explorer to run slowly"


Windows XP SP0 (IE 6.0.2600.0000.xpclient.010817-1148)
iexplore.exe takes 99% CPU for a while and then asks if you want to abort a
script that "is causing Internet Explorer to run slowly"


Windows XP SP1 (IE 6.0.2800.1106.xpsp1.020828-1920)
iexplore.exe takes 99% CPU for a while and then asks if you want to abort a
script that "is causing Internet Explorer to run slowly"


Windows XP SP2 (IE 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158)
The window gets resized to a very small size and then the JavaScript dies with
"Access Denied" at the resizeBy call.


Windows XP fully patched (IE 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_gdr.050301-1519)
The window gets resized to a very small size and then the JavaScript dies with
"Access Denied" at the resizeBy call.


It doesn't look like an IE bug to me. Do you have any third party browser
extensions installed?
