I'm guessing you are refering to the status bar which displays the
address of a link onmouseover.

The addressbar can by design be programmatically changed to display
anything you want at any time, including when you hover over a link and
the onmouseover event fires. Simply change the window.status property
from JS.

Can the URL displayed on a mouseover in IE, be spoofed?

Thank you,
