nmap 4.76

tried out one of the new graphical versions of the new nmap from insecure.org yesterday evening. one of the new features in the latest version is that nmap draws a topology map over your the hosts you scanned in your network. you can even click one specific host and have the whole view animate and show the network map with that host in focus. looks nice, and is animated!
very far from the old command line versions of the past.

here is a quick scan of my lab network at home:



one thing i noticed was that my C:-drive was full of temporary files after the installation. wtf!


turns out that nmap is only to blame for using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 C++ redistributible in its windows version. and apperantly its a known (and old) bug.
