So a small update. I'm not sure what caused my error but I traced it down to http.py.
After comparing my backtrack http.py from twisted to the current I noticed a minor difference on the line that was erroring out.
Before:
# twisted imports from twisted.internet import interfaces, reactor, protocol, address, task[/CODE] After: [CODE] # twisted imports from twisted.internet import interfaces, reactor, protocol, address[/CODE] Basically I removed the importing of the task portion. Since then, sslstrip fires up fine. While I do know python I am not familiar enough with the twisted suite to know if the task portion of the module is needed. We'll see if I get any errors.
