When it comes to internet phishing or spamming, much success relies upon tricking the user into clicking a link. Often times one can tell how legit a link is simply by looking at it. For example, if you’re telling me that you’re paypal but I don’t see paypal.com in the URL, I’m going to know it’s fake.
Recently though, some people (including myself) have stumbled upon a way to redirect people to a website using an innocent looking Google link. The trick revolves around the “I’m feeling Lucky” feature of Google. By simply appending &btnI=3564 to a Google search query, the user is taken to the first result for that query. In order to use this trick, you’ll need to find a search term that your website comes up first for. Since it can be any term though, it’s quite easy to make up a random string and include it on your page. etc. |

who the fuck posts links to google and why would I ever be interested in yr search results?
google is my fucking homepage. I'll do it myself. again, lazy fucking clickers. also note: beware links to wikipedia from unknown sources. most instances I've seen include: "lol go to link and "save as:"". DO NOT FUCKING SAVE AS. also also: Bristol probably gets more malware in a week than floatingslowly has in his life |

I get that you are taken to a site (and not the google search itself) with the exploit, but why would you click something this long:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=using+an+innocent+looking+Google+li nk.&btnG=Google+Search&aq=f&oq=&btnI=3564 any link that's much longer than the root URL is suspect. NOTHING is foolproof against somebody who wants to fuck you up, but you can really minimize yr losses by not acting stupidly. Quote:

no one sends links, the victim simply uses the "i'm feeling lucky" button on google's homepage.

maybe YOU need to reread what you posted!
Quote:
the link is tailored for a google search that meets limited search criteria (with &btnI=3564 to take to and open the first page found using I'm feeling lucky). can the lucky button take you to a malware site randomly? sure, but it's an unlikely probability and NOT what is being described in yr above text! |

brain overload, nice mess.
i wish i was a robot ha, let's see... yeah, but the simply fact it says google on it makes it credibly enough for millions of people, lots of them mac users. and what if i do this:www.totallysafesite.com etc. etc. etc. etc. there other many ways to redirect urls, many other tricks etc. etc. now tell me, isn't a bit silly defending the inexistence of a security tool proven useful? |

if you know anything about anything you won't fall prey to phishing. people who fall for that shit are MORONS, plain and simple. it's so ridiculously easy to avoid.

Haha, uh.. it's the most popular web browser around besides Internet Explorer (which is kind of a "by default" thing for most computers). |
