A windows 9x machine that shares any of its files, even read only, can be crashed remotely via the con/con issue.
6b86f48dfa2be6f9382859f493774f77bf590ecb9219b3ea09878d0a6e76489aAll versions of Win 95 & 98 in a LAN can be crashed using a modified version of the 'win98-con'-Bug. The target must have at lea
st one shared directory (read-only access is enough).
You just have to execute a 'special' link in a HTML-File on your own machine. This will crash down the victim's machine in the L
AN and maybe even in the Internet (I've not yet tested this possibility).

<head><title>Crash!</title></head>
<body>
<a href="file://victim/directory/con/con">click me!</a>

In this code fragment 'victim' is the name of victim's machine and 'directory' is any shared directory on this machine. Clicking
on this link will crash the machine as described in the 'win98-con.txt' by Zoa Chien in March, 3rd.
