Re: Buffer Overflow with all versions of Internet Explorer and Javacript.

After a few minutes testing it seems this does not only effect Internet
Explorer but also the following browsers:
In KDE's konqueror Latest Version it Seg Faults the browser instantly
In Mozilla 0.99 it causes a Denial of Service situation against the
machine with 100% CPU usage, and some crazy hard drive accessing until
the process is killed
Other information:
Netscape 6 series latest version does nothing when SMASH! is clicked
Galeon latest tries to mail a rather long email address, but the browser
itself is un-effected
Test System:
Linux Redhat 7.3 2.4.18-4 #1 Thu May 2 18:06:25 EDT 2002 i686

the 28/07/1999 I have discovered a stack buffer overflow caused by until
the moment all the versions of the Internet Explorer.
In many windows98 causes the necessity to reinitiate the equipment, since
to my to seem it remains without memory.
Only it has been proven in several versions 5 of IE on WindowsNT
server sp6 and windows98 Second Edition. As I said before the Windows 98
I had to reinitiate it to the force.
Can be possible to execute arbitrary code using the variable company of
the example?
// internet Explorer 5.00.2314.1003 on WindowsNT 4 sp6
// internet Explorer 5.00.3500.1003 on Windows98se
