Details

The above page contains a couple of corrupted tags.  Navigator 4.5 and IE display
it successfully, while Gecko (as of 1/29/99) hangs and consumes all available
memory on my PC while trying to display it.  I don't care if Gecko rejects the
page due to the corrupted tags, but it should not hang on it.
Setting all current Open/Normal to M4.
