WebHogs 1.1 by Doctor Electron, Copyright 2002, 2003 Global Services, All Rights Reserved.

==INSTALLATION

Just unzip webhogs1.zip into a directory (e.g., C:\WebHogs) and run WebHogs.exe
Right click on webhogs.exe to create a link and send it to the desktop, if you like.
Right click on the link, select properties, select program and select change icon
to use the webhogs.ico in WebHogs.

And WebHogs does not "invade" your computer -- no changes to your registry,
no files in your Windows directory.  Maj. Hog: "It's how a progrom should be."
See the WebHogs FAQ at Net Census.

==CONCEPT:   <<Maj. Hog at IT convention, "I am the official pig catcher.">>

  Web pages may "invade" your computer and privacy.  Like a malicious virus,
a web page may track your movements, download and run programs, and alter your
computer without telling you.  Maj. Hog says, "Catch them and pen them up."

==FEATURES:  <<"WebHogs is the internet tool that could.">>

  WebHogs evaluates web pages and rates them with a Pig Score.  The Web Hogs
themselves are the web pages with the greatest Pig Scores.  WebHogs produces
Pig Scores for indiviual web pages, a list of sites in an input file, or will
go out and find them all by itself ("deep surf troll").  The greatest Web Hogs
may then be listed in the Web Page Pen -- the Web Hogs Hall of Shame.

  The Hall of Shame was started with randomly-selected web servers world-wide
so there could be no bias by company, country or region.  The Web Hogs Hall
is at Net Census (http://www.angelfire.com/space/netcensus/webhogspen.html).

  WebHogs allocates points for potentially objectionable elements in both the
http header (you don't see this in your browser) and in the web page <head>
and <body> fields.  WebHogs scans the content for Warnings, Alerts and Danger
related to loss of privacy, use of your system resources (without permission?)
and possible corruption of your computer system (known suspicious elements).

WARNINGS include cookies and tracking your mouse movements, etc.
ALERTS include running scripts, using Java code, defining functions, creating
  documents, invoking object classes, use of ActiveX, running applets, etc.
DANGER includes non-text content, downloading programs, malicious URLs, etc.
EXTRA Any reference to Osama Bin Laden or Al Qaeda will be reported and logged!

  Find your own entries for the Web Hogs Hall of Shame with the RandScan engine:
o Stealth scan by generating random IP addresses in a user-specified range.
o Stealth scan by incrementing the IP address (a.b.c.d) in *reverse* order
    (increment a's, then b's, etc).
o Test a list of hosts from an input file or a single web server.
o Look up host names for all connections.
o Select number of sockets in multi-socket data collection.
o Four different logs of results to files for later analysis:
    (1) Session data [Webhogs.log], (2) Found Hosts [Port&Code.lst],
    (3) Connection Transcript [Port&Code.dat], (4) Events [PigAlert.dat]
o Display server banners -- the self-decriptions of web server software.
