Phishing, for those that aren’t in the know, is a website that is disguised as another website and then steals the user’s log-in info once entered. The anti-phishing feature in iPhone 3.1 is set to on by default, and to check to make sure it is you can go to Settings — Safari, and then slide the “Fraud Warning” button to on.
