I found this rapidshare link while surfing the net, I think the book is quite informative. Anyways, here is the link:

http://rapidshare.com/files/47026629/Google_Hacking_for_Penetration_Testers.exe

Yep. its ".exe" file and inside it is the ".pdf" file. NOD32 didnt detect anything. Probably this link will be dead in a few weeks or once detected for copyright issues or something.
