IE Security Threat - Spoofed Address

Here's (one of) the latest IE security vulnerabilities. The displayed link and the address in the bar after you click on it can be falsified. You can test your browser at http://www.secunia.com/internet_expl...spoofing_test/

Mozilla doesn't fall for the scam (except that the displayed url when you hover over a link is almost spoofed), but IE does.

A reported fix for this can be found at http://openwares.org/index.php?optio...r&filecatid=17
