Don't Trust Your Eyes or URLs ----------------------------- by Glenn Fleishman <glenn@tidbits.com>
The likelihood of falling victim to a spoofed URL on the Web itself is less likely, assuming you start from a site that's a relatively trusted source.
Actually, as we've seen in probably the first example of this technique, you can start from a bid on eBay which says "click here to pay with PayPal", and get somewhere else; and one will likely assume the best, since he trusts eBay.
