Test The Phishing Protection In Firefox
There are basically two options to protect computer systems (and their users) from phishing attacks. The first are protections in programs like email clients or instant messengers that are commonly used to spread phishing links while the second method blocks the web browser from opening those links (when they have already been clicked on). The phishing protection – they call it web forgery protection – in the Firefox web browser belongs to the second protection option against phishing attacks.
Firefox will display a warning whenever the user tries to open a website that is a reported phishing website. Updated phishing and [COLOR=#0072bc !important][COLOR=#0072bc !important]malware[/COLOR][/COLOR] lists are automatically downloaded every 30 minutes if the web forgery protection is enabled in the web browser.
