Also it updates less frequently then OpenSource browsers like Mozilla and Konqueror..
And since IE has a *cough*monopoly*cough* on the browser market, other browsers like Opera etc. do more to "prove" their worth..
And YES the code works..

The fact the Galeon running on linux, and Mozilla, even the Window$ version, have their own built in pop-up window stoppers is enough reason for me to use these browsers exclusively. I also believe these browsers are more secure.

I just verified this.
Using Win2K and IE 6 all available updates.
Right before the actual crash IE will take all CPU time.
Then it crashes asking to send a bug report.
If you are looking for more IE exploits pivx holds a list
It can be found:

there.
10 April 2003: There are currently 13 unpatched vulnerabilities
.
