Sppofstick Anti_phishing Browser Utility

If you've ever followed a link and wondered if it's a legitimate link to ebay or anywhere else.. Spoofstick is the browser utility for you!

SpoofStick makes it easier to spot a spoofed website by prominently displaying only the most relevant domain information. It's not a comprehensive solution, but it's a good start. For example, if you're on the following URL (this is a real, legitimate ebay url):

http://signin.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?
SignIn&UsingSSL=0&pUserId=&ru=http%3A%2F%
2Fcontact.ebay.com%2Fws1%2FeBayISAPI.dll%
3FShowCoreAskSellerQuestion%26requested%
3Ddominicsmusic%26de%3Doff%26iid%
3D3711129021%26frm%3D284%26acceptcookie%
3D0%26loginconfirmed%3D0%26redirect%3D0%
26pass%3D%7B_pass_%7D%26userid%3D&pp=p
ass&co_partnerid=2&pageType=711"
Spoofstick will say: "You're on ebay.com".

If you get fooled by going to a spoofed site, for example http://signin.ebay.com@10.19.32.4/ (a "spoof" example used by ebay in their customer outreach),

Spoofstick will say: "You're on 10.19.32.4"

Here's the link for this free utility:
