Installing GoolagScan using wine for Backtrack4

While researching some googledorks, i spent some time to get cDc's Goolag running with Wine.

Goolag Scanner is an automated "Google hacking" application.  Google hacking is a form of Web site auditing that takes advantage of "dorks," or extended search queries, that look for very specific kinds of data. The home of all dorks is http://johnny.ihackstuff.com/ghdb/.

I used Backtrack 4 for my tests, but any Debian or Ubuntu Release running >= Wine 1.1.28 (devel snapshot) should be fine. Start with the Wine installation first. I wrote some installation instructions how to install newer Wine versions for Backtrack 4.

Installation

1.) Download Dan Kegels winetricks

# wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks

The latest winetricks can also be found at http://winezeug.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/winetricks should Dan's link lag behind a few versions.

2.) Run the winetricks script

* set windows version to Windows 2000
* install at least Version 2.0 of the .net Framwork

3.) Download Goolag (tested with version 1.0.0.41)

http://www.goolag.org/download.html

4.) run the Installer with wine

# wine GoolagScanner_1.0.41.exe

The setup tools will look a little weird and will probably crash after installation. Don't bother, Goolag will run just fine. Either from the shell, or called from the newly created desktop shortcut.

Sometimes a picture says more than 1000 words.

Have fun with !
