History is the following one. Michael Zalewski started to more feed browsers
used in the market with URLs randomicamente badly formed. Browsers tested had
been: Microsoft InterNet Explorer, Mozilla, Operate, Lynx and Links. Surprising
the only one browser that not crashed it was the IE. So, Michael share the code
of the used tool to generate the URLs, or either, you yourselves he can prove.
In case that it wants to test, they follow some links for URLs that will go
crash on mozilla :
