I’ve had Net tools installed for about 5 months now, only thing is I don’t know what 90% of it does :p - Is there a guide anywhere of what each tool does in Net tools? That’d be great, it doesn’t explain them at all in the program.

This set of tools almost seems too good to be true.
I looked at half of that list and the my eyes glazed over.
Why is it free?
I am a linux freak and won’t bother to ask if it works on linux too, but its just a huge collection.
Can anyone who has actually used the product give us some comments on it. I wouldn’t mind introducing it to our corporate section but they will want to know its been tested since as they have said to me before a toolkit of this kind is the amongst the best places to hide a trojan horse.

Nice list. I could probably make use of a couple of these tools. The traceroute and the port scanner can come in very handy for me!
