Along the same lines are the java script commands in this KB article to reveal 'spoofed' websites: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;[ln];833786

I have had an IE shortcut for this for quite sometime now and have attached it below. It does not seem to work in Maxthon if you happen to use that browser but Maxthon has a plugin to do the same thing anyway. :)

I use this in Firefox. I made a bookmark out of it for easy access. Good Tip

Just remember if the site is running any ads they update everytime you click on the site so it will always show current.

RB , I've found this & use it for Maxthon & Firefox . Works well .

Problem: Often, phishing scams tamper with the appearance of the address bar, showing some legitimate information instead of the true location.

Here is a simple way to verify sites as you go.

(1) Create a new link in the "links bar".
(2) Name it "verify site" and paste the following text in the URL field:

javascript:alert("The actual URL of this site has been verified as: " + location.protocol + "//" + location.hostname +"/");

(3) Change icon if desired.
(4) After pressing OK, IE might complain that there is no association for javascript, just press [Yes] to keep the target anyway.

USE: Whenever you are on a suspected site, click the link and you'll get a popup as shown in the image.
