    Ie

    Hi Folks,

    Well, I have heard about an IE vulnerability, that allows the user to disply a false address of a certain web site,,, like in the address bar seems to be CNN web site but it is actually AO. I don't know if I could express my question properly.
    Thanks for consideration.

    Cheers,

    Yes there is such a vulnerability, and a patch for it. If you are up to date on your Windows updates, then you are already patched.

    Some google search results for spoofing in IE6.

    And a site with a vulnerability test, for you to check your system:
