firefox compatible netcraft toolbar
Quote:
Netcraft has released its security toolbar for the open source Firefox browser, aiming to limit the threat from phishing scams by using a blacklist of known fraudulent websites.
The technology relies on individuals earmarking the URLs of phishing websites and passing the information on to other users. The toolbar then blocks access to the sites.
It also makes sure that the browser displays all the toolbars. Some phishing sites hide the URL to prevent users from noticing that the URL of the fraudulent site differs from the legitimate version.
