Antiphishing toolbar for Firefox released

Internet services company Netcraft has released a version of its toolbar for Firefox. The plug-in can help users of the Web browser avoid phishing scams, the company said.

The Netcraft Toolbar blocks phishing Web sites that have been reported by other users. A version of the plug-in for Microsoft's Internet Explorer browser has been available since December of last year. More than 7,000 phishing sites have been detected and blocked since then, Netcraft, which is located in Bath, England, said on its Web site on Tuesday.

一个根据其他用户汇报的黑名单来防止"网络钓鱼"的工具条
==================
什么是网络钓鱼？

网络钓鱼（Phishing）一词，是“Fishing”和“Phone”的综合体，由于黑客始祖起初是以电话作案，所以用“Ph”来取代“F”，创造了”Phishing”。

“网络钓鱼”攻击利用欺骗性的电子邮件和伪造的Web站点来进行诈骗活动，受骗者往往会泄露自己的财务数据，如信用卡号、账户用户名、口令和社保编号等内容。诈骗者通常会将自己伪装成知名银行、在线零售商和信用卡公司等可信的品牌，在所有接触诈骗信息的用户中，有高达5%的人都会对这些骗局做出响应。

在美国和英国已经开始出现专门反网络钓鱼的组织，越来越多在线企业、技术公司、安全机构加入到反“网络钓鱼”组织的行列，比如微软、戴尔都宣布设立专案分析师或推出用户教育计划，微软还捐出4.6万美元的软件，协助防治“网络钓鱼”。
