I made a PNG file that crashes explorer...

[Dubb]

this is an odd.

saved as from photoshop, I can open the folder it's in, but when I scroll down to the file, explorer crashes and dumps me back to the desktop.

today is not going well.

Yeah, there's a few threads about what can cause the IE image renderer to crash. There was a paper published in July and a bunch of examples since.


Here is the Safari "image of doom" too: http://www.drunkenblog.com/drunkenblog-archives/i/kthmlwebkit_crasher.gif

I would but:

1) it's 28 MB
2) I can't click on it in my ftp uploader without crashing.

I'm using safari and I clicked the link. I'm still here.

Safari was updated on 8/29. I believe the bug was only in Tiger, not Panther also.

Same with the Jaguar version (1.0.3). For some reason the animation wasn't displayed correctly though.

If it says explorer needs to close, move the window over and keep using your comp

What if you select multiple files (like selecting a file then ctrl clicking the png file), does that crash it as well?
