Re: [PEN-TEST] Visio bites

If there are undocumented features to make Visio more useful, the ass*oles
at MS would not tell us what they were.  They told us they would not support
us for doing any kind of modifying of the OS information (we had a 25K node
network, and the OS ID stuff was wrong as hell).

And one full discovery took over three days, so with a limitation on time,
it's just about can't be done.
