FYI: right now there is exists some "joke" in the wild which crashes Firefox users running under X Window system. At least, it works under x64 Linux.

To reproduce:
 Try to load URL: http://lady.mail.ru/img/bg_l.png

Result:
 browser crashes with X window system error.

Output:
The program 'firefox' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.
  (Details: serial 345764 error_code 11 request_code 53 minor_code 0)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
