If you want to confirm the true address of the webpage you are looking at, type the following simple Javascript code into the address bar of your browser to display the true URL in a pop-up box:
By the way, if you save this code as a favorite in Internet Explorer’s “links” folder, it will be ready to click whenever you feel the need to check exactly what page you are looking at. To do this:

• <LI style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 6pt; TEXT-ALIGN: justify">First select (with the cursor) and copy (control-C) the Javascript code shown above.
  <LI style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 6pt; TEXT-ALIGN: justify">Then create a new favorite in “Links” from any page. Call it something like “Confirm”.
  <LI style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 6pt; TEXT-ALIGN: justify">Now right-click the new favorites link and select “Properties” at the bottom of the pull-down menu.
  <LI style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 6pt; TEXT-ALIGN: justify">In the address box, in place of the URL to the page you originally linked, paste (control-V) the Javascript code exactly as shown above.
  <LI style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 6pt; TEXT-ALIGN: justify">Click OK and then confirm (twice!) that this means using Javascript code which “does not have a registered program” (you can easily verify the Javascript code to make sure there is nothing untoward going on here - if you are truly paranoid, do not accept the Javascript, put up your lead shielding and go back into your cave).
  <LI style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 6pt; TEXT-ALIGN: justify">Now click the link to see it work, and gasp in wonderment. As if by magic, it tells you the true location for whatever page you are viewing, regardless of what appears to be the page’s URL in Internet Explorer’s address box. Tell your friends and family about this little trick - help spread the word. Phishers who use tricks to conceal the page URL will be put out of business and the world will be a better place for the honorable, righteous and upstanding members of society that visit NoticeBored.com.
• Be aware that browser security is an oxymoron. It is conceivable that phishers may be able to find a way to alter the location.protocol and location.hostname parameters used in the Javascript ... in which case maybe I’ll join you in that cave after all ...

Ever tried using the wayback machine of alexa fame and seeing the history of how old a site is?
