OT: Important Security Issue in Non-IE browsers

The fix for Firefix is pretty simple. Type aboutfig in the address bar. Scroll down until you see network.enableIDN then double-click it to change the value to false. This shouldn't hurt anything, since IE doesn't support this feature anyway (and the internet is IE-biased).

There is another workaround for Mozilla browsers that involves editing another file. This post contains it. Also see this one.

There we go.

There's also a Proxo filter that Proxomitron users can add: This one
