First learn how to spell it properly - "phishing"

Windows Update and the Security Pages are the ONLY sites MS uses to push out their updates. What is the point of your question?

     It sounds like a badly needed fix that sure should slow down the "phising"
     that is going on. I assume this will be posted on the Windows Update Page
     and/or the Security Page ?
     
     I borrowed a short piece of the Computerworld Article below:
     Microsoft: Change to IE will block some Web URLs.
     Microsoft will soon release a software update for IE that will end that
     browser's ability to accept Web URLs that hide the address of the Web page
     being displayed using the "@" symbol
