Hey,

I happened to have IE5 installed on solaris:

User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.0; SunOS 5.5.1 sun4m; X11)

So I gave it a shot, it appears to not even attempt to get the favicon.ico
file. I even put in the URL
http://web.cip.com.br/flaviovs/sec/favicon/favicon.ico, but all I get is a
broken image icon. So anyway, no crash on solaris.
