Story: Firefox phishing vulnerability discovered
Posted by: Killian (Friday 7 January 2005, 3:01 PM)
I've used Firefox since the Phoenix days. Noone ever asked me what/which browser I like. Oh Well. Once again not everyone's voice is heard, unless you scream. As far as a "security hole" it should be more of a User Vulnerability, as only a dumb person goes clickin links in emails from odd places, last I knew. Granted, it's nice to KNOW, but come on. Most of these "announcements" just give the Phishermen a REASON to try to exploit it. Perhaps I just have learned my lessons long ago by helping people who are dumb already. One does learn what NOT to do from listening how other people screw up their machines. Muahahaa
