Has anyone attempted to browse:
http://microsoft.com/NTServer/all/Downloads.asp
using Netscape Navigator and noticed what seems to be an HTML denial
of service? I've tested this page with Javascript on and off, Java on
and off, cookies on and off, under FreeBSD, Linux and Solaris and the
behavior is consistent:
* Navigator freezes for several seconds
* CPU utilization climbs briefly to near 100%
* memory usage climbs by 11MB
* the 11MB or memory are not released even after leaving
the page and clearing disk and RAM caches.
The page <HEAD> shows two possible sources for this extremely unusual
browser behavior:
<HTML><HEAD>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="PICS-Label" CONTENT='(PICS-1.1
"http://www.rsac.org/ratingsv01.html" l comment "RSACi North America
Server" by "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" r (n 0 s 0 v 0 l 0))'> <META
NAME="MS.LOCALE" CONTENT="EN-US"> <LINK REL="stylesheet"
TYPE="text/css" HREF="/NTServer/global/Netscape.css"> <SCRIPT
SRC="/ntserver/inc/jscripts.js" LANGUAGE="javascript">
</SCRIPT></HEAD>
Is there a tool (other than tcpdump) which can examine the
"Netscape.css" script?
