Is this an "Interesting Bug" or something else?

I found something tonight, and said, channelling Robin, the Boy Wonder: "Holey Explorer, Batman!"
 
I simply put a website name into Explorer and it crashed.
 
I went to this site, a help screen for my online bridge program (I play 3 or 4 hours a night, just like Bill Gates!)
 
However, I pasted the following partial URL and my Explorer thrashed and sucked MIPS and wouldn't stop.
 
Care to enlighten me as to cause?  Or is this simply an insanely easy bug to replicate and distribute?
