	Display Manager [Suspected]

Well if you look at the fact there is no title on titlebar and the
fact the active tab is Untitled, I'd hazard to guess its something he
manually entered into the address bar, and so we don't even know if
this is exploitable by clicking a link or whatnot.

Not exactly sure why this was posted if no details are provided. 
Anything else for us Sumit?
