    He's probably looking for someone to blame for something he did. nmap does
    not replace files on ANY machine. Its only a scanner.

    Not sure if this is the best list for this, but I am in a bit of a jam.

    I just downloaded the new NMAP v. 3.50 and ran it on my internal network. My
    IT manager is freaking out. He says my scan replaced mstask.exe on the
    machines I scanned.

    Anybody else seen this behavior?
