A big step up to security with IE for Microsoft. Best of luck to them.

This is a tool for tools that can't see a scam even if it bit them in the buttock :)

So you just gave it a poor score because of the color of it's skin? I miss the days when people rated software on the basis of it's function, regardless of what it looked like or what it's name was.

I don't understand Microsoft's utter refusal to let go of the MSN brand. I know of people that like Microsoft, but hate anything MSN, butterfly, solely based on their experience 10 years ago with their pathetic dial-up service! Just call it the Mirosoft anti-phishing toolbar, get rid of the silly androgenous butterfly, and you will get converts.
If you need market research done on this MS please let me know.
And yes I rate it based on the color of it's skin. the functionality of a product is tied to it's user-friendliness and ugliness. I won't use a product that is hard to use or annoys me every time I need to go basic functions. I complained about the google toolbar also until I figured out how to remove certain functions like the desktop search icon. (which BTW isn't exactly user friendly)
