If you don't mind me asking, how did a threading problem creep in here
as I thought this was all single threaded? You have shared static 
hashtables/vectors or something? These do tend to be neglected junk bins, 
contributing
to memory leaks and unsafe access ( " the base classes are syncroninzxed,
so gee this must be thread safe").

Browsers are not supposed to lock up in response to bad pages. However,
I have been responsible for this myself with some java applets :)
I wouldn't pick on this except it seems to happen a lot when trying
to read ( ok ) pdf files in a brower. If you touch it while downloading,
it goes into a tight loop using up all CPU and becoming unresponsive. 
Note to Leonard: has this been fixed yet? Sure, along with freedom comes
responsibility, if PDF format allows arbirtrary code to execute then
pathological  code could lock up a browser. But, there should be some way
to prevent the act of trying to scroll a partially loaded pdf from taking
over your machine. 

Thanks.
