Since you are posting this for the second time: There are many people who have been told to check that the URL matches the page displayed before entering any sensitive information. Like, if they are seeing the paypal page, they are told to check the address bar to see if it shows http://paypal.com and not http://paypa1.com, for instance. Many papers on spoofing mention this as if it is an infallible method for checking the authenticity of the page. Such people will fall for these exploits. Hey, to be very honest, if this was 0day and the spoof was well constructed, even you and me would probably fall for it. ;D Anyways, it wont make a difference to the "click all-fill all" zombies you are talking about. :) -- S.G.Masood __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
