2) Blindy was sploiting this earlier today
3) It's been news for a bit, and will effect almost any browser on the Windows platform if certain things are done properly.

Probably more of a Windows exploit than an Internet Explorer one, then. I'm currently running a build of Firebird that's a few weeks old and it displays an incorrect URL as well. My iBook is busted right now and I don't have any Linux distros loaded at the moment - anyone who uses Firebird regularly on OS X or Linux care to test it out and let us know?

I do too, but Knoppix doesn't include Firebird. I think it's just plain old Konqueror. If they do have a Gecko browser, it's Mozilla, and I'm sure it's not a recent build.
Thus, you are worthless to me.

It will affect any browser on any platform if that browser, or the OS toolbox is written in C. Similar variants of this same well-known class of problem have plagued applications of all sorts for years.
Browser - Mozilla Firebird 0.6.1
Result from Del's test link - http://www.evercrest.com%01%00@home.cogeco.ca/~jpaccione/ in my address bar, Del's page on my screen
That help?

Yeah, it's called 'Trusting user input' and it's considered acceptable for some reason.... What's wrong with a sanity check on user supplied input every now and then?

But it poses great risk for password stealing sites trying to pass themselves off as being legit, since they can make the URL in the window appear to be at aol.com, station.sony.com, whatever ... instead of being at the geocities.com url that they are really at.
