    That isn't a test page and typing into the box does not provide a demo. The page is just broken for you - I don't know why.

    That page seems to outline a bunch of exploits and which browsers they effect.

    Did we really just go on a Noscript praise over a page outlining different exploits? Lord :rolleyes: P.s, once again, much to the displeasure of those who decide they like their old, rickety browser version, it shows that you're better off staying with the crowd and just updating the damned thing.

    I wish they had a proof of concept.
