Hello,
I think that such products are a useless hype. If you got more than one braincell, you should not fall for any "social engineering" trap.

The latest versions of IE Explorer (7.0) and Firefox (2.0) have anti-phishing built into the browser.

I would suggest-

1. Comodo's V-engine

2. Link Scanner Lite can alert you to some phishing sites as well

This is a tad late, but I'd recommend Netcraft Toolbar for anti-phishing purposes. I have been using it with Firefox without any problems. It requires separate installations for both browsers the original poster mentions. Not sure about IE but for Fx it installs as extension.

As someone mentioned, it might be "useless hype" but after all we are all human with human weaknesses so I gather having little extra for safeguarding doesn't hurt.
