I can't get Sigil 2.5.2 to crash on Windows with an internet url used as the src attribute for an img tag. In fact, the image displays just fine. There doesn't seem to be a way to use an url in the Add File dialog, so I guess I'm at a loss as to what exactly you're doing when Sigil crashes.

I even tried opening the remote url with Sigil's Open dialog (changing the filter from .epub to * all files), and while I get an error, I get no crash.
