NetScanTools
NetScanTools™ 4.x is a collection of common and specialized utilities that have their roots in the UNIX® operating system. NetScanTools brings them to the Windows® environment commonly found in the home and business environment. Many of NetScanTools functions, such as Ping, Traceroute, and NSLOOKUP are very familiar to network professionals. The advantage they have over their command line counterparts is in the presentation and integration. All of the functions are grouped together in a tabbed dialog interface which has been the "look and feel" of NetScanTools since it's introduction in 1995. Version 4.x introduces the new ability to change the ordering and even the visibility of the tabs. As with previous versions, you can export your information to other programs very easily using the clipboard, or saving to disk, or simply printing a text report. NetScanTools™ network client utilities list: Name Server Lookup (NSLOOKUP), Zone Transfer domain listing, Ping, Traceroute, Whois with automatic server selection, Port Scanner, Network Ping Sweep Scanner (NetScanner), Time Sync, Finger, Ident Server, NetBIOS Info and local shares, Daytime, Quote, Chargen, Echo, Winsock Info, Services and Protocols database checks, Telnet-like Terminal, Hosts file Management and "What's New At NWPSW"--a simple URL grabber. Our Review: NetScanTools is the premiere suite of Internet utilities. Unix/Linux users are spoilt for choice when it comes to 'net tools - but for Windows users it's a different kettle of fish. If you've ever read a website or magazine mentioning trace routes, nslookups, whois and other such jargon - this is for you. NetScanTools includes pretty much the whole set of utilities that unix users have come to know and love - all wrapped up and tabbed in a friendly GUI. This is definitely worth the download - and maybe even the upgrade to the Pro version.
