Hi guys, just wanted to make sure you have been following the relevant FD thread. Google can be used to find malware executables, which Websense and HD have showed. There are some more uses for it, which can be helpful in a pen-test, checking a site for executables for AUP violations or a compromised system hosting malware. The FD thread is the archives for July: http://lists.grok.org.uk/pipermail/full-disclosure/2006-July/ I wrote about this extensively, here: http://blogs.securiteam.com/index.php/archives/513 Gadi. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This List Sponsored by: Cenzic Concerned about Web Application Security?
