Gone Phishing? Only if You Follow These Instructions
Posted by Jeff Campbell in "Apple Software (iPhone/iPod Touch)" @ 09:00 AM
"Though the recent iPhone 3.1 update added support for protecting against phishing sites, there were concerns that it didn't catch any."
The problem is they didn't make it clear on how to get this particular feature to work. Apple recommends that you start Safari on a Wi-Fi network with your iPhone/iPod Touch after updating, and then charge it while the screen is dark. The database then loads during this time period in order to "save the user data charges" since you are doing it all on Wi-Fi. One minor detail they forgot to include in any instructions.
