Partial vulnerability to this exploit but doesnt fully mask the url, and therefore the exploit is not considered as serious as within Internet Explorer.

• The url should not be disguised in navigation bar and the address should show as http://www.kitz.co.uk/tech/exploit.htm
• Recent editions of FireFox and other Mozilla browsers should have also given you a warning pop-up before navigating to this page.

Opera Users

  If the address bar shows www.microsoft.com, then your browser is vulnerable.

This page was orginally written in 2004 to help identify unprotected Internet Explorer browsers which may be vulnerable to attack. Since then it has been adapted to identify other browsers, and actually identified a major flaw in the Safari browser on the same day of release, even before news of such vulverability hit the headlines.
