I don't know how sound it is, but I use 

javascript:alert('The%20actual%20URL%20is:\t\t'%20+%20location.protocol%20+%20'//'%20+%20location.hostname%20+%20'/'%20+%20'\nThe%20address%20URL%20is:\t\t'%20+%20location.href%20+%20'\n'%20+%20'\nIf%20the%20server%20names%20do%20not%20match,%20this%20may%20be%20a%20spoof.')
        

in my browser for everyday checking.
