Re: Any thoughts on War-Googling?

Hi 

Well, I think there is some filtering from the search engines maintainers, 
that's why it isn't as known and successful as it could be. You can use 
different search engines who support boolean logic (most search engines 
will), like

www.teoma.com   www.wisenut.com www.google.com

and search for different path's or filenames, like

C:\winnt                                WinNT/2K Default-Directory
C:\inetpub                      IIS Default-Directory
TSWeb/default.htm               Win2K Terminal Services
url:.htaccess                   HTA-Access-File
url:.htpasswd                   Password-File
url:etc AND link:passwd Password-File

And Google supports another special trick:

filetype:XLS/DOC                searching for Documents

And now apply this for Scripting Paths, CGIs, Executables
and all that you can find on target servers ;-)
