Dear John Smith,
Actually, browser DoS may be quite serious vulnerability, depending on
nature of DoS. Think about e.g. banner or content exchange network,
social networks, web boards, etc where browser vulnerability may be
used against site or page because it will harm any visitors of this
site or page.
In case of this very vulnerability, most serious impact may be from
e-mail vector.
