I think the browser developers (FF & Chrome) really need to address this issue.

I have seen that FF has link typo fix enabled by default so does Chrome through the google search.

So if you mistype say www.google.com for www.googl.com, it will redirect you to what it thinks is right based on english typo correction.

This is a huge flaw since if the phishing site takes advantage of this, this feature could redirect you to the phishing site.

There is a way to disable typo correction in FF in the about:config tab, but I don't remember how. I don't know about chrome.
