OneCare Updated with Anti-phishing Technology Activation

Beginning today, OneCare will now assist with the activation of phishing protection with IE7’s Microsoft Phishing Filter. The filter was designed to help protect customers from the threat of ‘phishing’ – as most of you know by now - a form of online fraud which mimics legitimate, trusted sites in order to trick people into sharing personal or sensitive information which is later sold, or used for ID theft purposes, etc. Microsoft Phishing Filter helps protect people from sharing personal information with bogus websites by warning customers when a site looks suspicious, and blocks people from unwittingly sharing personal information with known, reported phishing sites.

As OneCare customers, need to do to make sure you have these phish-fighting capabilities? Very little. In keeping with OneCare’s worry-free service, you will automatically receive the IE7 anti-phishing technology. So if you haven’t already turned it on, when OneCare prompts you to turn on the Microsoft Phishing Filter over the next few days, you can just click yes and you’ll be good to go. From there, OneCare will help ensure Microsoft Phishing Filter automatically monitors suspicious sites as you’re browsing to help keep you and your family protected against phishing scams.
