16 month-old bug continues to crash Flash

He discovered this bug in September of 2008 and has reported it to Adobe, which hasn’t fixed it yet.

16 months later.

If you’d like to test it for yourself, make sure there’s nothing important open in your browser window and head to http://flashcrash.dempsky.org/.

Safari and Google Chrome are fine, as they have separated the plugin into its own process, meaning it crashes the plugin and not the browser. But IE and Firefox will quit as soon as you visit the page.
