It is fairly well known in the web design community, at least with certain
versions of IE. The usual response is to delete IE's cache, set it to use
0MB and hit reload. Which will usually work. (At least at getting IE to
reload the page.) Closing the source code window could help too.
I haven't approached it from a security angle, so I don't know what could
be done with it.
