Description

[Candace Giddens]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4

I downloaded the addition to notify me of sites that are known phishing sites,
and I am told that all sites I go to should be considered dangerous.  At each
site the pop up window comes up stating that the site is a known phishing site
and to not give any personal info.  This happens even on the Firefox site.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.I use a book marked site to go to and upon the initial screen a pop up
notifies me that it is a known phishing scam site.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
I click the close button and the pop up box goes away.

Expected Results:  
Either every site I went to is a scam site, or there is a problem with the
program.  The sites include - CNN, Fox News, Wal Mart, AARP, Yahoo, Amazon.com 
and Firefox.

This is a report about a bug in a Firefox extension (presumably this one:
https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?application=firefox&id=909).

Bugs in extensions should be reported to the extension author, not in the
Mozilla Bugzilla.

Marking INVALID.
