Here's the way the Firefox 3.0 release notes introduced the two
pages in 2008:

* Malware Protection: malware protection warns users when they arrive at
  sites which are known to install viruses, spyware, trojans or other
  malware. 
  (Try it here! <http://www.mozilla.org/firefox/its-an-attack.html>) 

* New Web Forgery Protection page: the content of pages suspected as web
  forgeries is no longer shown. 
  (Try it here! <http://www.mozilla.org/firefox/its-a-trap.html>)
