MSN Toolbar to Add Anti-Phishing Feature
Filed in: Microsoft, Security — August 26th, 2005
The MSN Toolbar will add new anti-phishing feature to protect IE6 users from scam websites.
MSN product manager Justin Osmer said that his unit will offer the same technology in a similar manner to users of the current Internet Explorer 6 browser via a plug-in to the free MSN toolbar that works in conjunction with IE6.
"It just made sense to include it into the products we have," Osmer said.
The Microsoft Phishing Filter add-in will be made available shortly in beta, or test form, Osmer said, adding that it will require that a computer be running Windows XP with Service Pack 2.
