This folder contains evidence of a resident script technique discovered independently around the same time, using XML as the persistence vector rather than the HTML/iframe approach explored in other entries. The proof-of-concept was archived as XML_Resident_POC.zip — the source files inside showed that XML documents loaded in IE could be used as a staging ground to survive page navigations in a similar way.
The technique was part of a broader investigation into how various document types handled the window object and navigation events differently from standard HTML pages. XML documents in IE had their own quirks around zone handling and script execution context that made them interesting candidates for this kind of persistence research.
Found during my years at Microsoft (2006–2014). These bugs were patched long ago — shared here as a historical record for learning purposes.
