DNS Spoofing is a term used when a DNS server accepts and uses incorrect information from a host that has no authority giving that information. DNS spoofing is also called DNS Domain Name System (DNS) poisoning, also known as DNS cache poisoning or DNS attack.

2) this is the address used for testing our own machine. the address is 127.0.0.1 or "localhost". this create loop back to our own system.
3) if the protocol used supports it is possible. telnet supports that. the interface will be of host computer.
4) it transfer the raw info over the network without encrypting. so it not much secure. the password u send may be seen.
