No problem on my XP system with IE6. This is actually a very old bug from ~1996 that affected Win95/98/Me. I don�t think that the NT code base every had this problem, so it shouldn�t be present in XP.

This bug is simmilar to C:\con\con but not as dagerous. But its the same reason, naimly that windows trys to open aux, a hardware device in earlier windows versions. I already sended an email to Microsoft but they said the bug wouldn't exist.
