Here's another mini rant I was just thinking about: Why should my anti-virus software ask me if I want to auto-update? What a dumb question to ask. I'm lazy, I don't want to "do" anything.

Toolbars aren’t are business (and they annoy me) — I don’t believe in making people download software when there is so much amazing potential to make the network smarter and more intelligent.

I would love to see that users have more alternatives for real time phishing notification. And of course, managed anti-phishing service for financial institutions would be great! Keep up the good work David and let me know when the PhishTank toolbar is released ! :) I don’t have a microphone in your office but I’ll take a wild (educated) guess about your next step: Firefox / IE extension which checks PhishTank’s URL database.
