General
=======
Works best on Windows 2000 and XP. Will run OK on NT 4.0 (service pack 4 and above) but without raw socket functions such as half-scans and OS detection.
OS detection utilises both Fyodors NMAP style of OS fingerprinting and ICMP OS fingerprinting as discussed in the Ofir Arkin ICMP paper. Mingsweeper can use (and import) NMAP fingerprint files although these fingerprints will not contain ICMP information.
