Hello team,
when i digit the address www.something.com@www.other.com the browser redirect me
to www.other.com (Like all the other borwser like Opera, Ie and so on ...). I
think that is a real big problem because allow all the people to create fake
pages like "Fake login pages for banks, E-Mail anc more ...).
I think that if you will solve the problem all the Online Banks of the world
will suggest to all the customers to use Mozilla instead IE.
Bye!
