    I love this plugin! I loved the idea when you told me about it in
France, and I love it much more now that I see how simple the code is.
These are the things I modified in the plugin before commiting it to
the trunk:

- There were lines with tab indentation instead of the PEP-8
recommended 4-space indentation. I changed them.

- Moved the "self._exec = False" to the top of the plugin, mostly
because I don't want it to run many times if there is some problem
with the plugin. For example, if for some reason the md5 file is not
found, the original "self._exec = False" would never be executed, and
the plugin would run many times.

- Changed the reporting a little bit. Now an information object is
only saved to the kb if the favicon.ico is actually identified.

- Removed the unused "self._fuzzableRequests = []" and "dirs = []"

- I added a test script named
"scripts/script-favicon_identification.w3af" that helps test the
plugin you created by running "./w3af_console -s
scripts/script-favicon_identification.w3af"

To sum up, I did nothing and you did a great job ;) If you perform a
"svn up" of w3af's trunk, you'll find your plugin there.

    I see that you guys are trying to expand this database by running
"Internet wide" scans. I have a server that could be used for this
purpose, if you send me a couple of commands that you need me to run,
I'll be more than happy to run them and then send you the response.
Maybe you could assign me the address range for Argentina, Chile,
Uruguay, Bolivia and Paraguay, and I would the results back to you?

    Thank you for supporting w3af, and other open source projects like
openvas and nessus!

Cheers,
