Some browsers are immune to this bug


Make your mind up.
Is it a browser problem or Windows?
If Opera and Firefox are immune to it, it would seem like an IE problem to me.

I will make up my mind.
I say that if you have Opera you are safe. If you have IE or FF you are not safe.If you are running win 95, 98, ME and IE or FF you are safe.
If you have NT you are not safe. So it is acombination of OS and browser, ok

First link Firefox doesn\'t crash.

Second link...it starts to crash, but then shows a black screen on the webpage and then decides to crash.

Internet Explorer...crashed instantly on both.

My Apple PC...didn\'t crash on either link.

I need a faster Windows PC. :/
