DOes not crash on firefox on OSX
http://67.165.139.235/ does not crash opera, minefield, trunk build,firefox 2.0.0.7pre

haven't checked on linux

But it does crash 2.0.0.6 and below

Check this it might be some serious advisory or an exploit

From the description I'm sure it was malicious (fake greeting cards are no good), but it's been taken down with no way to tell what it was. Since 2.0.0.7pre (which will become 2.0.0.8) and trunk didn't show the problem for you I guess the best we can do is assume we're on the right track and ship ASAP.
