Don't worry, I can find it for you guys. Just click the following link, which leads to a neat script I made! It reads your Internet cookies and relays the information stored within to you, without giving me any of it.

Just asking, what is "Phishing"?
is it sorta like those popup scams which steal your bank details if you put them into it?

Long answer: it's the art of making people believe they're connecting to the real website so that they can steal their information (login, password, PMs, list of friends, etc.). See wikipedia for further details:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phishing

And for those that think it only happens to others, less knowledgeable ones, read this:

Always look at your address bar, behave sensibly.

(very funnily, the next kind of attacks is pharming, which should remind us of something familiar

)
