Passwordless Wingate installed |

Acertains if wingate is installed Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Wingate is a program that permits a Windows98 computer to act as a proxy. Unfortunately, the default configuration is too permissive and permits anyone to use this computer to connect anywhere, thus hiding his real IP address. This WinGate server does not ask for any password, and thus can be used by a possible hacker from anywhere as a telnet relay. Solution : check the WinGate configuration.
