; An additional strategy for whitelisting
An additional strategy for whitelisting could be that we have a universal directory maintained by people. This directory will have the pages where the user can enter the ID and password for that site. FF could show the user by means like address bar colour that he is entering the right site. So we have people, like citibank, paypal, yahoo, indiatimes, rediff etc., giving the pages where the user can logon from, to this directory. This will help user overcome the recent flaw discovered in IE and FF as well as provide better phishing protection.
