Uncle Google

Google is now scanning pages for malware, and if they find any they'll let you know about it. Kind of an interesting development. I assume this'll show up as a Firefox extension and be integrated into Google Toolbar soon. "Are you sure you want to visit that page?"

Different thing, I think. Phishing != malware.

Well, different thing to be protecting against, but if you want to see what the anti-malware protection in firefox will likely look like, there it is. In both cases the cure is to get people not to visit the website.
