Description Kirk Strauser 2006-07-10 16:25:54 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.2)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

Certain websites (such as http://www.snopes.com/) use embedded Flash visitor tracking.  On my system, I get an open/save dialog like:

    Open 'http://cdn.fastcli...click.net/ffp2.swf'?

The problem is that the entire URL is never visible so I don't have the option of copying/pasting that URL into another application, terminal window, etc.  The above is a trivial example, but it could just as easily resolve to:

    http://cdn.fastclick.phishing.donotclick.net/ffp2.swf

or other malicious site.  Please make the entire URL available so that users can get all the information they need to make good decisions in these cases.
