MSIE crash-"feature"

Sorry if this is old news already, but IE has a rather interesting feature
(tested with 6.0.2600.0000 whatever that means)

It crashes on very minimalistic code; check here:

It can be further stripped down and even sent as different MIME-type (see old
posting about the MIME-"smartness in IE):

For those who want to test it with their HTML-compatible mail reader, send
a mail to 

    iecrash () x42 com

and you will get a HTML-mail in return.
