I'm guessing that your point is that this tool makes it too easy for someone to crack into a wireless access point? I suppose this could be true... However, keep in mind that if little...

Certainly not correcting you here, but I think I would have answered yes. For example, you could use netcat to get the HTTP Header instead of installing a firefox addon. Also, I would be surprised...

One possibility would be to use your current python knowledge in conjunction with GTK or wxpython...both of which are more or less widget front ends that allow you to interface into them with python....

Now I'm curious what would happen if you ran it against a Sybase database. Certainly no longer one of the most popular RDBMS platforms in North America, but still very popular in the Asian markets....

Run top and if one of the 'hald-addon' processes is taking up 90+ percent of the cpu then it's a linux issue I've bumped into for the first time with BT3 as well. It's not BT3 specific though, you...

I can see how this might be considered unethical, but not illegal. BackTrack is a free open source project is it not? If this is the case then I fail to see how the GNU license is being violated....
