    Weird/Fake Gmail Screen

    Hi, Guys
    donno if this goes in this section.

    I am in a net cafe,Win XP,i checked my gmail and couple of google services
    everything is good, but even i am logged in into my gmail account there is that page that keeps popping every 3 min after i close it,i can notice the address in the taskbar changing from www to welcome..but i can not notice the original address

    so in short is there any recent Gmail vuln...how do we report this... how to find out/make sure if this is a fake log in screen or not? and trace the original address ?
    (maybe i would learn a couple of things from this)

    anyone having the same thing ?



    this is the link that displays in the page :

    [text]"https://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLogin?service=mail&passive=true&rm=false&continue=http%3A%2F%2Fmail.google.com%2Fmail%2Fnotifier%2Ftest%3F%26TYPE%3Dhtml%26DOMAIN%3D%26ui%3Dhtml%26zy%3Dl"[text]



    and this is the source code of the page attached below ?
    anything else ?

    10x guys in advance

    Ok i took that File you attached and i opened it up in Notepad, i then saved the file with a .html extension.
    I then went to the gmail login page
    https://gmail.google.com, and i grab there source code, and i then loaded up the file that i converted into .html into the browser as well, it loaded up and the 2 pages looked identical.
    So i grabbed the source code from the fake gmail.
    Here is something that i noticed, well seemed a little odd to me, but i could just be being paranoid.

    Code:
    Fake Gmail Source Code
    
    href="ForgotPasswd?continue=http%3A%2F%2Fmail.google.com%2Fmail%2Fnotifier%2
    Ftest%3F%26TYPE%3Dhtml%26DOMAIN%3D%26ui%3Dhtml%26zy%3Dl&service=mail"
    Code:
    Authentic Gmail Source Code
    
    href="ForgotPasswd?continue=https%3A%2F%2Fmail.google.com%2Fmail%2
    F%3Fui%3Dhtml%26zy%3Dl&service=mail"
    Can you spot the difference..

    I came back today at the same net cafe,same pc.. checked my gmail and waited couple of minutes nothing happened...

    The guy there is using DeepFreeze2000xp
    and when i came back the computer looked the same, there was no history in IE...
    so i think it was something from a site i visited yesterday
    but i did not visit something naughty, i visited couple of sites and blogs, tried to remember as many as possible and re-visit today...nothing happened...
    so guess i will drop it, and change my password and info...

    thank you for ur help .:front2back:.

    and i will do some search about faked screen, how to trace them blablabla..
    just have to make some time and will keep u updated guys if i found something intresting

    aha! got the bastards....

    I am about to leave... spent about 1 hr of time on the pc...the pop screen came back

    the websites i re-visited :
    - gmail
    - antionline (admit it guys.. is that u ? )
    - www.google.com/adsense
    - www.blogger.com
    - hotmail

    - astalavista.com
    - puppy linux.org
    - linuxgazette.com

    - net2dial(got that from google add) and re-clicked on the inside links of send free sms some pop ups came (sms2sms.com) and sms2sms/shots.htm,sms2sms/pc-2-pc.htm-********usagreencard/adv.htm
    a pop up window :
    http://amch.questionmarket.com/adscg...&secs_up=36000


    -http://jamalghosn.blogspot.com/2005/12/hi5-challenges.html and a link that led to
    bravenet guest map :
    http://pub42.bravenet.com/guestmap/s...om=0&welcome=1
    -test window :S :S (a blank window just appears: address mercury.bravenet.com/network/jstarget.html


    i visited some new pages :
    f-secure.com/weblog and a link from there crackz.ws a pop up came from crackz.ws

    so that is my browsing history...
    chatted on msn with couple of highly trusted real life frnds, did not send/receive anything

    So i think i have to do little filtering...have to use another computer to visit unique page at it
    but net cafe is full :S and it is kinda late..
    so i will re-test pages later...
    but in the meanwhile... watchout guys.. those are the pages..
    if anyone found the one.. plz do let me know...

    and in that case what u usually do guys.. who can shut up a website that is generating fake log in screens and trying to steal ppls passwords ? who should the end-user contact ?
    of course i won't go to the nearby police center :P ...
