Those exploits don't work
"Secunia recommends that Web surfers using the tabbed feature should disable JavaScript or simply avoid visiting trusted Web sites while visiting untrusted Web sites."

*I* recommend you actually try secunia's exploits first, they don't work as advertised, at least the Firefox ones.

The Citibank spoofing, doesn't spoof anything, the fake citibank page doesn't function AT ALL, yet despite this you're supposed to still enter your login and password on a page that doesn't work?? Why?

The dialog spoof comes up when the secuna site is displayed, before I could even switch to the citibank page.

They recommend switcing off Javascript, but if you did that you couldn't login to Citibank, or use most websites.

Come on Secuna, you obviously want to find reasons to kill Javascript, but you have to a damn site better than this.
