Paul has a point here, I believe!
After a **lot** of html code "trimming" I came with an offline version of
the page like this:
------------------------------------------------------
2bd125.jpg
-------------------------------------------------------
and this piece of code does crash my browser (6.0.2800.1106)
on windows 2000 server all patches and fixes up to date.
NOTE: Every time you **want** the browser to crash, you must delete it from
the "Temporary Internet Files" before loading it in your browser.
Although this image (e1x1.gif) is 1x1 GIF, ACDSee Classic calls it a "Bad or
unrecognized image header".
Does this image, in some way, affects the way IE does the parsing?
Seems like it...

Tiago Halm

Denial of Service?
This seems to be caused by the 1x1 image http://www.galad.com/frame/e1x1.gif
used within the page. If I block this URL the IE stops crashing with that
page.
