A Better Anti-Phishing Toolbar?

Saqib Ali asks: "There have been recent discussions on Security Focus mailing lists about several Anti Phishing Toolbars available for Firefox. Do Slashdot readers have any recommendations on which Anti Phishing toolbar to use, or on how to improve upon the existing ones?"

Obligatory

Netcraft confirms it.

Seriously, it is a pretty good bar. I just wish its appearance/position was a little more customizable.

IE7 has anti phishing features installed in it already..

Phishing? whazzat?

My email reader does not render HTML. When I encounter pure HTML email, I just delete it. Or bounce it back to spoof@... as eBay and PayPal have requested.

In the unusual case (once per week) that I actually _want_ to look at a website mentioned in email, I cut'n'paste.

HTML email is abomination. Autoload images is evil.

yeah, exactly how does an "Anti Phishing" toolbar work? Only thing I can think of is a built-in blacklist. Just use Opera, and it will flat out tell you if the site you are looking at is the site that it claims to be.
