JavaScript code in the message causes Outlook to crash, but not Netscape
By the looks of it it supposed to crash IE with a message "You guys are so
dumb!"

It will crash any application that uses shlwapi.dll to render html.
It's not javascript code but an invalid HTML tag that is causing the
crash. Some folks think its cute to post messages like this from time
to time in the newsgroups.
