It is actually possible to do that with any browser, because once you get that error box, the browser is dead and it’s actually the windows os doing all the pretty stuff.
Congratulations on your high Digg ranking (or should that be commiserations?) To stop overloading your servers, it might be an idea to get Flickr (or another such site) to host your images, and simply embed them.
Hilarious picture though, you gotta love IE. Oops, I mean Firefox

JTAN, thanks for advice. I generally host pictures at third-part sites. But this time “The Planet” made me a joke. I plan to change my server first.
The picture is at the fp of reddit,digg,su,mixx at the same time. It’s not that easy to handle such high volume of traffic.

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=434602
that does this while firefox is active.
