Code that breaks Internet Explorer
A demo page with an unclosed <form> kills Internet Explorer 7/8/9/10 with varying degrees of fatality.
Interestingly, three years ago this example for IE 7/8 was discussed on MSDN , but came to the conclusion that there is no bug. Since then, IE 9 and IE 10 (early beta) have come out, which loop in exactly the same way. They say that the latest build of IE 10 is already behaving normally.

If you remove the second
