Installation process is easy:
1. Save to disk new version from :
http://AmirHerzberg.com/TrustBar/index.html#download.
2. Remove any previous version from your FireFox/DeerPark/Mozilla
browser (Tools->Extensions, select TrustBar, uninstall).
3. Restart the browser.
4. Open (from brower's File menu) the file where you saved the extension.
5. Restart the browser.
You should now have TrustBar, by default as a separate bar (but you can
use View->Toolbars->customize and then drag the buttons, e.g. to the
FireFox menu bar, and then view->Toolbars and check off TrustBar to
avoid it wasting space).
You can set names/logos for protected and unprotected sites; and
TrustBar automatically displays site's name, as default identifier, and
CA identity for protected sites.
Hey! will randomly perform `training attack` namely present a (protected
or at least `assigned name/logo`) sites as if they were spoofed. Namely,
the contents of the sites are not changed at all, but we do change the
location and/or identification indicators, to look as under common
attacks. Currently the default frequency is 1/4 which may be a bit high
for `real` use, but please don't set it to lower for at least two weeks,
because we want to collect the usability data.
