Bugs and Improvements

To see existing open follow-up bugs, see the dependency tree.

Outright Bugs

• "Why is this site blocked" button on malware site does not go to the SB diagnostic page for the site.

UE improvements

Get Me Out of Here!

• Currently goes "Back"
  • What happens if you arrive on a bad site via a redirect?
  • We should adopt one of the other browsers' behaviors
  • The button text doesn't give a clear indication of where "out of here!" is
• Firefox goes "Home" (and to "Start" if "Home" is a blocked site)
• Safari closes the page (button is labeled as such)
• Opera goes "Home" (button is labeled as such)

Ignore this warning

• Currently gives no warning/rationale why you should not do this before or when clicking (contra SSL error page)
• Currently visible by default (contra SSL error page)
• Safari gives a warning (malware only): [1]
• Safari uses a button, not a link

Site icon

• We have a "blocked" site icon to land when Bug 441732 is fixed.
• We should consider making the blocked site icon persist while on the bad site (along with the persistent "we really think this site is bad" bar) to counteract any site icon-recognition ambiguity.

Blocker Bar

• We should adopt the Firefox 3.1 model where the bar also contains "Get me out of here" and "This isn't {a web forgery|an attack site}"
• Opera has no blocker bar, but they do place a warning in the location bar (both on the blocker page and after clicking through).
