Is .Co The New .Com?

Columbia has decided to open up its top level domain, .co, to people outside its country. It is expected that the .co would be nearly as popular as .com domain names as it is a common abbreviation for the word, ‘company’.

The registration for the general public will be available as of 20 July 2010. You should consider applying for a .co domain name before 10 June 2010 if you own the trademark of your domain name. This would prevent unethical domainers from cybersquatting on what should have been your domain name.

Registrars like GoDaddy have already opened themselves for.co application. More details can be found on the .co registrar’s website.

Tabnapping, The Son of Phishing Attacks

Traditional Phishing Attacks

Conventional phishing attacks are usually done by email.

Upon receiving an email claiming to be from Facebook (for example), you click the link inside. Unbeknown to you, the link shown on the url bar is not facebook.com. And you enter you login information. You account will then be compromised by the fake site.

Most people will no longer fall for this phishing attack since a lot of awareness has been created about this.

Latest Phishing Attacks

However, the latest in internet security news has it that there is a new form of phishing termed as ‘tabnapping’.

Let’s use Paypal for the below example.

What happens with tabnapping is that you visit a seemingly innocent website. When you move on to visit another site on a new tab, that website will change into a fake Paypal site. Most of us who surf the web with multiple tabs will not realise this and when we switch the tabs back, we would believe that we have forgotten to login to Paypal and login. This is how your account information will be compromised and in this case your Paypal funds will be gone.

You can see an example of tabnapping on the site belonging to Aza Raskin (the creative lead of Mozilla Firefox). See what happens a few seconds. On that very same site, Raskin has  explained how tabnapping works and provided some tips to prevent yourself from being a victim.

I’ve especially highlighted tabnapping here at Logish Empire so that you will safeguard all your information sensitive accounts. This includes your domain name registrar accounts.

Register Dot Com Domains Before The Price Rise

VeriSign (the authoritative registry of domain names such as .com, .net, .tv, and others) will increase .com and .net domain names prices with effect from July 1st. The price increase affects the wholesale prices to domain name registrars by up to $0.50. Apparently, the price rise will extend to the end consumers.

The increase in fees will be used to upgrade Verisign’s infrastructure to cope with the huge rise in domain names registration (Increase in 15 million domain names from the close of 2008 to 2009).

Therefore, if you plan to register or renew .com/.net domain names, take advantage of the lower prices from now up till July 1st of 2010.
