And some users who downloaded the latest Nmap for the Conficker script have ended up impressed with all of Nmap's other great features. I mean we can't spend all our time patting ourselves on the back, but after all the work we've put in, it is great to see articles/blogs like this: This afternoon I decided that it would be prudent to make a quick scan of the corporate networks for signs of Conficker-ness. I knew from Dan Kaminsky's recent "Taming Conficker" that I should be able to use the recent nmap beta for detection so that's just the route I opted to take with the most recent beta version. I'm not sure when I last tried nmap on Windows, but I know it was from before the integrated Zenmap GUI was included. Man, this works great! I'm all for the command line, don't get me wrong, but when given the option of using a nicely organized and functional UI I'll go that route every time. I really like the ability to store profiles -- that rocks. [...] Of course, as so often happens with nmap I then spent the next hour trying various different sorts of scans and options to see what else I might turn up on my networks. That thing is an enjoyable time-sink, isn't it?
