deranger Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 Works fine for me. And on a side note, if you choose to use the google antiphishing facility , there are privacy issues involved: http://blacklistednews.com/view.asp?ID=1146 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Cryton Subscriber² Posted October 27, 2006 Subscriber² Share Posted October 27, 2006 I think from this thread we can see that whilst google's anti-phishing list isn't complete, they do update it quickly and regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thollian Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 works for me, FF2.0 gave me a warning saying this website was suspicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
none_needed Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 FF2 detects it now. When the dude posted abt FF not picking up the site as a phishing site, its true. I went and did a test, FF says nothing abt phishing but IE7 detects it. I guess now the known list is updated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Septimus Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 That's because it has been updated since :rolleyes: IE7 Phishing Filter is actually better. I wonder what Opera's will be like. Edit - beaten... should refresh more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Gibs Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 ff2 phising filter is crap: try this: http://212.103.189.10:121/PayPal%2006/cgi-...ypal/login.html DO NOT ATTEMPT TO LOGIN WITH A REAL ACCOUNT IE7 detects it perfectly, FF2 does not [with both downloaded list and google check] and there are others too: http://www.dslreports.com/phishtrack?pid=5122&urls=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sub_Zero_Alchemist Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 try reporting those sites in ff 2.0 Report Web Forgery. Firefox phishing filter not going to detected those sites if there not reported. the sooner you report those sites the sooner ff phishing filter will detect those sites.

IceDogg Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Both IE7 and Firefox's anti-phishing features are new, and thus neither is working all that well yet. Give it some time and see if they can improve. I wouldn't trust either of them at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Decryptor Veteran Posted November 1, 2006 Veteran Share Posted November 1, 2006 the filters in IE7 and Firefox work the same way (with small differences) IE7 will check a local list of safe url's (e.g. paypal.com), otherwise (if enabled) it sends the URL to Microsoft (which then determines if it's a phishing site) FF2 checks a local list to see if it's a phishing site, or can send every URL to Google to check. Basically, it doesn't know a site is a phishing site until it's reported, that's why IE7 might miss a site while FF2 reports it, or vise versa, because they haven't been reported to the respective authority. If they sync the lists (which they should, Google and MS should work together with this), then it would work the same in both browsers, but until then it's stupid to call one browsers filter a "joke", when the browser your praising does the exact same thing (only with a different data source) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paolo90 Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Anti-fishing is a nice to have... but I never really felt the need for it. After all, it's very hard to fall into fishing websites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually that's why IE7's anti phishing works better, because of much larger user base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
