Its not a DoS, its just a browser crash

so forcing a browser to crash is not 'Denial of Service'?

I think your confused with DDoS


DDoS is a Distributed Denial of Service attack where a server is attacked
via multiple computers (like a bot net) at the same time AFAIK

no shit. so if you drop the 'Distributed' you get 'Denial of Service'. DoS
is rather general, code that keeps crashing your browser on purpose is denying
you the service it provides (viewing webpages).

rather like someone running off with your girlfriend ... you get denied service.
