This has been speculated about ever since they moved to internationalized domain names. IE isn't affected because it doesn't support IDN without a plugin. To be safe, always type in a website such as paypal, don't click on links provided in emails, etc. You can also disable support for IDN under about
:config in Firefox simply set network.enableIDN to false. Keep in mind this setting must be reset everytime you restart Firefox even if it reads as false.
