Hi folks! In a previous post I talked about using Impacket and Pcapy on Python 2.6. Since those installers are now out of date, here are fresh ones for various versions of Pcapy and Python, built against WinPcap 4.1.2. There’s also a new Impacket MSI installer that works against all Python versions.
Enjoy! 🙂
Edited 6-May-2013: updated Impacket to version 0.9.10

Hi everyone. Today I’ll be showing you a quick script I wrote to make Google searches from Python. There are previous projects doing the same thing -actually, doing it better-, namely Googolplex by Sebastian Wain and xgoogle by Peteris Krumins, but unfortunately they’re no longer working. Maybe the lack of complexity of this script will keep it working a little longer… 🙂
The interface is extremely simple, the module exports only one function called search().
# Get the first 20 hits for: "Breaking Code" WordPress blog
from googlesearch import search
for url in search('"Breaking Code" WordPress blog', stop=20):
print(url)
You can control which one of the Google Search pages to use, which language to search in, how many results per page, which page to start searching from and when to stop, and how long to wait between queries – however the only mandatory argument is the query string, everything else has a default value.
# Get the first 20 hits for "Mariposa botnet" in Google Spain
from googlesearch import search
for url in search('Mariposa botnet', tld='es', lang='es', stop=20):
print(url)
A word of caution, though: if you wait too little between requests or make too many of them, Google may block your IP for a while. This is especially annoying when you’re behind a corporate proxy – I won’t be made responsible when your coworkers suddenly develop an urge to kill you! 😀
EDIT (Jan 2017): Wow, this little code has expanded a lot since its creation. Now it’s an installable package and had contributions from many people. Thanks everyone! 🙂
