I tested this with IE9 on Windows 7 Pro and it did not crash. I clicked on the Crash Me button, moved the cursor all around, refreshed the page, etc. No crash.



I did some testing:

  Win7/IE8: froze
  Win7/IE9: froze 
  Win7/IE10: nothing
  Win8/IE10: nothing
  S2003/IE8: froze
  S2008/IE8: nothing


Certainly crashed my Vista (real machine).


I got it to hang on IE10 running the "Browser Mode: IE8" emulator.


I had the same results on Windows 7 / IE9 no crashing


maybe this only works on a windows xp machine..

Microsoft confirmed that bug:

"Cash Me" is no button even if it looks like one ;)


IE9 does not run on XP.
