When I insert www.6to.de in the URL line and hit return, this site is opened and
a few pop ups. In a task manager I see the memory usage growing from ca. 30MB to
about 65MB and then the whole windows hangs. (Everythig hangs, mouse doesn't
move....)

WFM 2002012806-0.9.8/WinNT4 - memory goes to about 35 meg, Java starts for
the ticker, etc. Reloaded it a few times and couldn't get it to fall over.

I am using J2RE 1.3.1_01.

Mind you, this page does all sorts of icky website tricks ... good for
smoketesting? :-)

I use the newest J2RE 1.4.0-beta..., but I don't check the
Peferences/Advanced/Enable Java button. I've installed 128MB RAM, maybe somehow
too less for this site.

I opened this with my linux system, there memory grew to 95 MB, but no hang -
that's linux!!!!!!

I never looked what plugins this site is using: I've installed:
QuickTime Plug-in 5.0.2
Shockwave Flash
Adobe Acrobat
Shockwave for Director

If you think of smoketesting, register! This is originally a paid start site! :-)
