IE8 still appears to crash when the testElement is removed. Putting back the 'background: "none"' in the testElementStyle appears to make IE8 happy (not crash). I tried to create a Fiddle but, weirdly, I couldn't get it to crash there. As far as I can tell, most of the time the body element is already in the DOM and the test element is a DIV. I notice the crash more consistently when I fire up a new iexplorer process and visit a page which uses jQuery (currently 1.6.2). Once the page is loaded, the crash is much less consistent (perhaps IE is doing some BODY caching/magic for performance?).
