SpoofStick 1.04, Helps users detect fake websites
Though it is a little obnoxious in how much room it takes up one can hide the toolbar until surfing to sites that ask for User Name, etc.
How to set enableIDN to false?

the /. article says spoofstick is also fooled. Or at least it shows the url with its non-english characters like it was designed to do - pаypal instead of paypal. (Depending on your font setup you can see the difference between them) Maybe spoofstick should have the IDN on or off option instead of mozilla. Surely international users need international URLs on by default.
Or maybe it should prompt to show utf8 only for secure sites.

A mind is a terrible thing to waste. Mine has wandered off and I'm out looking for it.
