Why DNS Wildcards Are Evil.

Publicated on : 1184958323
DNS wildcards for subdomains are cool, but also can facilitate phishing scams. I never understood why E-gold provides that any subdomain lands on their homepage, this just could facilitate phishing schemes. Because this stuff below will all go to e-gold.com no matter what browser type. it's trivial to setup your own domain and do the same thing E-gold is, phishing will never die.
