Hey, I didn't know you guys did that!  Probably because I've never
visited a fake e-gold site, even out of curiosity.

It's a neat technique, and quite easy to implement.  However, a phisher
could defeat it by downloading the images from the e-gold server and
serving them up from the phisher's own server.  Hmmm.
