You all get to suffer.

No cut today, stolen from stega because I felt like it:

jsbowden's LJ stalker is pokeypenguin!

pokeypenguin is stalking you because they think you are rich and they want your blingbling. They are also in jail for murder!

So there.

EDIT, because I forgot to type this in initially:

I'm planning on inflicting SP2 for WinXP on my laptop today, so the fun may continue.

That stalker thing doesn't work. My name doesn't show up for any of the people I'm stalking.

Caveat Emptor.

Subject: Windows XP SP2 incompatible with Nmap

This is just a heads-up that most Nmap functionality will not work on the just-released Microsoft Windows SP2. Why? Microsoft apparently broke it on purpose! When an Nmap user asked MS why security tools such as Nmap broke, MS responded:

> "We have removed support for TCP sends over RAW sockets in SP2.
> We surveyed applications and found the only apps using this on XP were
> people writing attack tools."

I don't know why they consider Nmap an "attack tool", particularly when they recommend it on some of their own pages. Shrug. Removing SP2 re-enables the functionality and causes Nmap to work again. Many problems unrelated to Nmap have been found with SP2 as well, though it does some welcome security improvements for people stuck on that platform.
