RE: NMAP - 3.50 changes mstask.exe?

He's probably looking for someone to blame for something he did. nmap does
not replace files on ANY machine. Its only a scanner.

Not sure if this is the best list for this, but I am in a bit of a jam.



I just downloaded the new NMAP v. 3.50 and ran it on my internal network. My
IT manager is freaking out.  He says my scan replaced mstask.exe on the
machines I scanned.



Anybody else seen this behavior?
