  MSN Adds Antiphishing, Games Capabilities to IE
Time: 11:01 EST/16:01 GMT | News Source: Windows IT Pro | Posted By: Andre Da Costa

On Wednesday morning, Microsoft's MSN division began offering two new add-ins for the MSN Search Toolbar. The first, a beta version of Microsoft's Phishing Filter add-in, helps protect users against Web-based scams. The second, the Games add-in, helps connect consumers with online gaming services at MSN Games. When the MSN Search Toolbar was first released earlier this year, Microsoft promised that it would be extending the product with a number of add-ins. These two are among the most full-featured released thus far.

The protection should be built into the Browser, NOT by pushing yet another Microsoft product one might not want.

MS still doesn't get browser security.

montanagrizzly: MSN basically made a quick hack to IE to allow tabs from an add-on. It is not easy to implement tabs in a browser that doesn't support them.

Now, IE7's way of handling tabs, and how it's coded, is actually better than the current Firefox.
