Firefox 2.0 Password Flaw
 

It appears that some might have missed this announcement, so in the interest of safety, I'm posting it in its own thread (discussed in another thread)...

On sites that allow users to enter code, a hacker can embed a form that tricks the user's browser into sending its username and password information to the hacker's computer. Because the form is embedded on a trusted Web site, the browser's built-in antiphishing protection, which is designed to alert users to fraudulent Web sites, does not detect the problem.

Thanks for heads up; I haven't heard about this issue before. That's the reason I never let my browsers store any of my usernames/pwds - I feel better knowing how and where my personal information gets used by entering it myself.

Thanks :thumbup:

Bump for Michelle...
