Can anyone else try this:
Loaded up Metasploit 3.1 from metasploit3.com on a Windows XP box. After install my anti-virus (AVG-free) freaked out at the tools/nc.exe binary claiming a trojan
Can anyone else try this and confirm or deny?
MSF dev team has been emailed
[EDIT] Non-issue. Netcat mis-labeld as a trojan. Known issue
I was using Symantec AV and it did the same. You can usually mark those as harmless...
Aren't those files which are detected injections for sql/apache/etc? I am assuming it has something to do on the lines with that, I'll have ot look again.
BTW. Having these tools installed on your normal everyday use PC might not be a good idea. Sure you can hack other people with them, but they will also make easy to hack you.
I keep my tools on external drives, installed on virtual machins or installed on dedicated machins where I don't have anything that can't be lost without loss
