A hapless Microsoft developer has introduced perhaps the simplest bug capable of remotely crashing Internet Explorer. Something as simple as <input type crash> will bring any browser to its knees. We've tried to uncover more productive bugs by testing the following, similar HTML tags ... so far with little success.
