If you look at the source code of the page with the test (www.shmoo.com) links on it, you can see how they are doing it with the а for the letter 'a' in the link. If you look carefully in your address bar after following one of the links, you can see the first letter 'a' in www.paypal is a non-standard character. |

| 322737 | 2005-02-08 19:45:00 | Wow, Firefox's "spoofstick" (www.corestreet.com) extension also gives me the spoofed url. This renders the extension useless. |

Cheers Billy 8-{) :D Everybody wants to go to Heaven, but nobody wants to die! |

| 322739 | 2005-02-08 21:01:00 | It's not that IE can't be spoofed, it can, it's just that FF, Opera, et al, implement their spoofs in a different way to IE's . So please don't feel left out, the internet and it's less savoury denizens couldn't care less about our personal ideals, it's purelythe numbers that count in this game . So, be careful out there ;) |
