SpiderFoot 2.0 released

[Steve Micallef <steve () binarypool com>]

Hi everyone,

SpiderFoot is a free, open-source footprinting tool, enabling you to 
perform various scans against a given domain name in order to obtain 
information such as sub-domains, e-mail addresses, owned netblocks, web 
server versions and so on. The main objective of SpiderFoot is to 
automate the footprinting process to the greatest extent possible, 
freeing up a penetration tester's time to focus their efforts on the 
security testing itself.

Grab it from: http://www.spiderfoot.net/

New in this release, which is actually a complete re-write of the 
version from 2005(!):
    - Now runs on Windows as well as Linux, Solaris, *BSD (basically 
anything with Python should be fine)
    - Scans are even more configurable than before
    - All scan data stored locally in an SQLite database for querying, 
reporting and analysis
    - Many more scans/tests included (GeoIP, URL linkage, web 
technology, port scans...)
    - You can now easily extend functionality by writing your own 
modules in Python
    - Completely new user interface, which is now entirely web-based
    - Configuration state is stored between runs
    - Scanning can be remotely controlled

I hope you find it useful, and if you have any suggestions/complaints, 
feel free to contact me.

Thanks,

Steve
