WTF!!!

The bug will work in Netscape aswell, mind you, so don't go blaming the browser -- that's right, it's not the browser's fault. It's the, uhh, operating system's fault.

Whats that about!
I tried it and it doesnt crash netscape... Maybe you use version 3 or somthing but if you use Netscape 6.2 which is in the same generation as IE 5.5 then you can count it.

NETSCAPE - Netscape doesn't crash at first, because the string to
call a path is changed to file:///D|/c:\nul\nul.  Upon entering
c:\nul\nul in the URL without file:///D|/ you -do- crash Netscape
and the Operating System.

(it's from that website)

Edit: Nope, not alcohol. That's not a true geek's drink   ;)  

Edit: I'm using Mozilla 0.9.8. NYAH!

:-p that's what I get for making it in 30 minuts under IBM websphere. That thing sucks. That and I couldn't really make anything good at the time. I'm sure I could make something better, but if you already made one, what's the point? :-p

the con/con thing is a kernel bug, it's just that IE doesn't filter it with "file://" as mentioned above. There is a patch though, so it's not going to work on too many computers nowadays, i suspect, except people who don't deserve it (all the real losers are using XP now...)
