Angry IP Scanner Listed As Malware
Sign Now
Angry IP Scanner is a very popular tool for network monitoring. It is being used by network administrators all over the world. It is featured in many magazine articles and other publications on security.
The program is very lightweight and unobtrusive (a user may just download and run it - no installation is needed). The full source code is available under the GPL license for anyone to review - there are no viruses or trojans.
Anti-virus software vendors (currently Symantec and McAfee), please stop considering it as a malware ('hacktool', 'potentionally unwanted program', etc). The users of both your anti-virus software and Angry IP Scanner are very disappointed about the removal of the program they actually need and use.
There is really no reason for doing that with Angry IP Scanner.

I use this tool as part of my job and I Symantec deleted so I say fix it or I will find another vendor for my antivirus needs.

This program is great! I tried, however, downloading it at school and the school server blocks it because it thinks it is "malicious code, virus." They need to stop this. This program is great and is virus-free.
