You can paste this html/javascript codelet to an html file in your webserver and see in your MSIE brower. You will see "www.microsoft.com" isolated in the addressbar from the "mozilla.org" domain suffix. Fortunately, you will see blank space (no phishing page) if you have recent IE patch. This won't work in firefox 1.x which strips off those special chars for unknow reasons before sending to the address bar. <script> window.open(unescape("http://www.microsoft.com%u1160%u1160%u1160%u1160%u1160%u1160.mozilla.org/"),"_blank"); </script> U+1160 is a space-like char and even stringprep/nameprep does not filter it out because the char is not for punctuational purpose. U+1160 is just one example, and i guess there may be many alternatives that can be used as blank char alternatives. U+1160 in the above example is placed in the 3rd level domain name label, over which .org registry cannot impose any regulations. Soobok Lee
