Just an FYI this works on the latest public beta of IE 7

I tried the test on Avast and it was also spoofed.

Tangentially, McAfee has a free anti-phishing BHO available, you can get one here:

It doesn't stop the Secunia test. But it might be useful for the average users.

It spoofed on IE7 for me as well, and the "navigate subframes" chnage didn't work for me.

Maxthon seemed to have blocked it from spoofing, I think with its pop up blocking end of things.

It just worked for me on 1.5.0.1 of Firefox...

> (in fact, turning off Active Scripting in general is a very good idea, if you can handle the hassle).

Well, let's look at it. If you stick with IE, then you choose between two possible hassles:

1) chronic 0wn3rship of your computer by malware purveyors, and having to pay $$$ to get it cleaned of the latest&greatest malware which uses the same old vector of active scripting being enabled by default in the Internet zone, and during which cleaning your computer is out of service and unavailable;

or

2) adding a relative handful of sites which you want to "just work" to the Trusted Sites zone (the same "deny-all-by-default-then-permit-exceptions-in-a- list" strategy which is extremely effective with firewalls, mailservers, and ssh, please note).

Which hassle would you prefer to have?
