According to this page, the following 19 bytes of not quite valid "HTML" make IE crash (yes, I just tried it, and it works):



<style></style>@;/*

You don't need the the second "" for it to work.

It didn't come up, so I'll tell you again: You don't need he second "/style" for it to work.

What do you mean with CRASH?!
When i put this HTML-Tag into a .html File and open it with IE, then I see the last four bytes: @;/*
