    Good question :)

    First of all, it looks like a false positive. I'll explain how it got there:

- Most likely you put an IP address as the target
- Started the scan with fingerPKS enabled
- fingerPKS searched for the IP address in the MIT PKS server, which
returned a bunch of results (for some reason)
- fingerPKS failed to validate that the result was a valid one and
simply added it to the email list

    Just added that final step of verification to the code. This issue
should be fixed in r4527. Please update to the latest version and run
the scan again. Let me know if the bogus result is still there.

Regards,
