WARNING : Fake Google AdWords Phishing Campaign

If you get an email entitled You'r adds have stopped working! from lperez_bt@adwords.com, do not open it because it is not an email from Google AdWords.

The following phishing email is being circulated :

Dear Adwords Member,

We hereby inform you that on the 26th of March a email change request
has been submitted to Google. Due to our security settings you are required
to confirm or decline the validity of the request. To do so please visit
the link bellow.

Adwords Site

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Sincerely,
Google Adwords Team

The word "AdWords Site" is linked to a false Google AdWords login page. If you are tricked and login in with private Adwords login data, your company's security will be comprised.

The title "You'r adds have stopped working!" should be an indicator that this is a fake email, but it's very easy to misread this, especially on a Smart Phone. More conversation on Twitter : Adwords+Phishing.

Optimize Your FireFox Address (Location) Bar for Search w/ Omnibar

We have had quite a few searching tools reviewed previously – but we can never have enough of them, can't we?

So in this post I am sharing a new one that you can't afford not to try.

Omnibar is the FireFox addon the main feature of which is actually combining the address bar and the search bar. Besides that, it also shows search and URL suggestions and has auto-complete option.

    Switch between search engines

    With Omnibar you can switch between the search engines right from the address bar (just click on the search engine icon in the location bar):

    Omnibar search engines

    Besides that, you can use search engine identifiers (aka "smart keywords") to switch between search engines:

    For example, to search Constitution at Wikipedia you can use the following types of query (either as prefix or suffix):

    • @w Constitution
    • @wiki Constitution
    • Constitution@w
    • Constitution@wiki

    Omnibar

    Use wildcard (*)

    Omnibar supports wildcard search – which is one of my favorite features.

    For example, on Windows [c:\Doc*\*\App] should list the contents of "c:\Documents and Settings\[usernames]\Application Data"

    Omnibar: wildcard support

    Whereas, [keyword *] will force to list all URLs from your browsing history and all search suggestions (powered by Google) that start with that keyword, e.g. [search *]:

    Omnibar

    Play with options

    Options can be accessed by going: TOOLS -> ADDONS; find "Omnibar" there and click Options (or just right-click on the search engine icon in the location bar).

    Via options you can set the number of suggestions shown and the style of suggestions:

    Omnibar

    Your choice?

    With such a variety of search tools and hacks, it is not easy to find your way. However, with this one I have pretty good experience. I've installed it and have no plans to remove it so far – and this is a very good sign. Please try it and let me know your thoughts!
