A way to hang windows

All off topic discussions go here. Everything from the funny thing your cat did to your favorite tv shows. Non-programming computer questions are ok too.

Wow Dex, pretty nice web site yo have... :D

When I tried to open it, Windows with Firefox has frozen. 10 seconds later and mouse stopped working :lol:. Eventually, when i tried to press any key - the PC speaker beeped, because the computer was totally locked up... After next 10 seconds, BIOS automatically restarted the computer.

Weird?! :D :lol:

dude, you know that quote about "shorter jokes are better jokes" ? Is there really a need to come again and again about those rants against people that think they are superior because blahblahblah?

Even if you've been pissed of by some guys that program in C, why do you feel the need to throw it back at anyone who's doing C?

Split the topic because it was getting a little off topic, if anyone is wondering the web page is this:

Code: Select all

HTTP Status Code: HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date:	Wed, 08 Nov 2006 16:49:12 GMT	CRLF
Server:	HungerHTTPd-3.14.15	CRLF
Connection:	close	CRLF
Transfer-Encoding:	chunked	CRLF
Content-Type:	text/html; charset=iso-8859-2	CRLF
Content (0.12 KiB)

<HTML>
  <BODY>
    <IMG SRC="img.jpg" width="9999999" height="9999999"><BR>
    Works on Windows... :)
  </BODY>
</HTML>
Seems some windows setups consume all memory or something when trying to scale the image. The image is valid http://hunger.hu/img.jpg, is that a young Dex? The other interesting thing to notice is the server type reported. Is that Apache with the server string replace or a custom http server?

:D Cool! How many hacks do you find from a stupid half-done communication system?
Windows Vista rapes you, cuts you and pisses inside. Thought these are just nifty side-effects.

well, as long as i can tell, it will have little to do with the communication system. It's more like a bug in the windowing system that tries to allocates a 999999x999999 surface to render the picture, quickly saturating all memory resources.

I can retrieve a broken HTML generator that nested levels of <table> to the point it completely saturated X on my linux, if you want ... The first time it occured to me, i ranted for hours about Netscape being broken and rebooted the computer. Nowadays, i'd just press the keycombo to fall back to text consoles, kill the offending browser window (ranting a few minutes about bookmarks being losts, and blahblahblah), then come back to X and start working again ...

No. It has much to do with http, html, and such. There would be less bugs in client if those would be simpler and further sophisticated.

Hi,

I'd say it has more to do with software quality (or lack of defensive programming).

What sort of programmer takes a value from anywhere on the internet, and then allocates memory based on this "value from anywhere" without first checking if that value is within a suitable range?


Cheers,

Brendan
