To disable IDN as a workaround for this problem (on Gecko-based browsers): hit about:config and set network.enableIDN to false.
That is a great suggestion, except for the part where it does not work.
Go ahead, make the change, then restart your browser. Now go look at about:config again. Yup, still set to false. Now go see if it the setting worked. It does not. So at least with Firefox 1.0 just took a bad situation and made it worse. Now people will think turning off this setting will actually accompolish something and protect them and it will not.
