PhishGuard for Internet Explorer Description

PhishGuard is a free service which detects and rapidly disables Internet "phishing" or "spoofing" attacks designed to steal critical financial data. Phishing attacks use fraudulent websites and emails that mimic well-known organizations in order to trick unsuspecting Internet users. A simple login or account number entry screen becomes a sophisticated trap. By assuming you are dealing with a trusted party, you can reveal financial information including credit card numbers, bank accounts, passwords, and social security numbers to the "bad guys". This type of attack is very difficult for the typical person to detect, as the scammer's emails and websites mimic the exact style and graphics of the spoofed company, and appear genuine. Sensitive financial information disclosed to scammers is used to make fraudulent financial transactions and to enable long-term identity theft. PhishGuard is a simple, free software service. The first person to discover a suspected phishing scam can report the offending email or URL (website address), literally in seconds. The PhishGuard system utilizes the collective observations of Internet users plus a rapid server-based submission and distribution system. Requirements: · Pentium II or better class of computer · 128 MB RAM · SVGA Must request free registration code at first run
