Re: NMAP 6.49 BETA 4 Not Valid

[Daniel Miller <bonsaiviking () gmail com>]

Tim,

We did not build any of the Nmap 6.49BETA-series releases with support for
Windows XP. Microsoft has stopped supporting this 14-year-old OS, and we
did not notice that support had dropped from Visual Studio by default. You
can read more in another mailing list thread [1], but we are currently
weighing our options.
