I'm not "having a pop".

It's just that you repeatedly make unsubstantiated statements and never offer any scrap of proof or justification for your comments.

I'm sure that you are aware that advfn is only available to registered users as this has been mentioned before in this forum. I'm also sure that you'll appreciate that the last link you posted here was to a phishing website and I'm less than inclined to follow any further links that you post.

Perhaps you would like to post the information here or maybe just explain using your own words.

There's a great new bit of kit coming out soon that will help you avoid phishing websites. Goes by the name of Webwise.

Which brings us neatly back to the point.

Webwise is a bad way to implement a phishing protection system.

Why ?

When it will be free, continually updated, and does not require the user to waste their time on downloads and updates. Sounds a great way of doing things I think.

Have you not been paying attention?

Firefox's anti phishing features are free, continually updated and do not require the user to waste time on downloads and updates.

Webwise will never be able to protect against all the threats that a PC based solution can.
