Another security tool? Anti-phishing tool

Are we expecting anti-phishing tool (security software)? Whoa! I have anti-virus, anti-trojan, anti-spam, anti-spyware, anti-scripts, anti-hacker (that's personal firewall :P), patch management program, anti-hijacker, anti-keyloggers.. and now I have to look for this anti-phishing tool or anti-scam? Not a biggie... just hoping that it will work!

InformationWeek published an article entitled “Companies Sharpen Tech Tools to Counter Scams” where it says vendors are working to develop more and better products to combat the rising tide of Internet fraud.

# re: Another security tool? Anti-phishing tool

There are two I know.

One is SpoofStick from US (http://www.corestreet.com/spoofstick/), and the other is IpGuardian from Australia (http://www.soft-trek.com.au/prjIpGuardian.asp). Both are IE plugins, but IpGuardian seemed to be more configurable and has more features (like guard against ads as well,a simple/strict mode, etc). Both are free to try.

Hope this helps
P/S SpoofStick also supports FireFox now.
