ABSTRACT
Phishing is the activity of fraudulently presenting oneself online as a legitimate enterprise in order to trick consumers into
giving up personal financial information that will be used for identity theft or other criminal activity. Phishing is most
commonly perpetrated through the mass distribution of e-mail messages directing users to a web site, but other venues are
utilized as well. In this paper, proposes a web Brower – an anti-phishing tool that prevents accesses to phishing sites through
URL validation (spoof guard database), lifetime of website and most visited site module. We have also given our proposed
system for Detection and Prevention of Phishing. Spoof guard also examines the anomalies in web pages and uses a machine
learning approach. for automatic classification. Spoof guard does not preserve any secret information and requires very less
input from user. Spoof guard performs automatic classification but by taking advantage of user assistance and external
repositories, hence the number of false positives is reduced by a significant value. Spoof guard is based on an approach
opposite to blacklist approach removing the race between phishers and anti-phishing organizations. Spoof given in this
document. Guard maintains a valid SPOOL of URLs with the mapping of corresponding IPs.We have also given a system to
detect Sybil attack by mapping IP address and server name as per searching module which preserve all the details of visited
sites using our browser
