Message-ID: <972D4D0A883D4948BED417C5E3A3229A@MoFo> Date: Wed, 18 Apr 2007 09:33:31 -0700 From: "Thor (Hammer of God)" <thor@...merofgod.com> To: "Tom Gregory" <sick.minded@...il.com> Cc: <bugtraq@...urityfocus.com> Subject: Re: Internet Explorer Crash Tested on several machines- max CPU went to 25, and IE came up asking if I wanted to stop the script in all cases. This is true of a default Vista install of IE 7 and XP Pro installs upgraded to IE 7. Scripting has to be on as well... Even on a dog computer, the prompt will come up (eventually). Non-issue here. t ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tom Gregory" <sick.minded@...il.com> To: "Thor (Hammer of God)" <thor@...merofgod.com> Cc: <bugtraq@...urityfocus.com> Sent: Wednesday, April 18, 2007 9:12 AM Subject: Re: Internet Explorer Crash > Actually Yes, the PoC crashing my IE, make it hang and my CPU usage goes > to 100%, and i'm using Internet Explorer 7.0.5730.11 like he said. > > Tom > > > > Thor (Hammer of God) wrote: >> Actually, I just get a message that says "A script on this page is >> causing Internet Explorer to run slowly."
