Maybe it is. Not sure. Did not check Nessus one because of stricter
licenses they put on plugins recently...

It's intentional took from "somewhere" by me (and obvious!). Didn't

So, I contacted author of the original script (nasl), just to make sure
that everything is fine and I have his permission to include his md5 db.
