Internet Scanner does a good job of enumerating accounts on a Windows
Domain(using netbios and null sessions) but if you tried to brute
force/dictionary every account that it found the scan would take a
VERY long time to complete.  If you are trying to pw crack through a
service (ftp,telnet,http...), use hydra otherwise use LC or John the
Ripper.
BTW, Nessus also does a good job enumerating accounts, and its free ;)

I've used Internet Security Scanner from ISS and really like it's
ability to pull users from NT domains and test common passwords, such
as username=password, password=password, etc.

I've considered purchasing the consultant version of l0phtcrack LC5.

Has anyone used LC5 and can anyone compare it to ISS?  Also are there
any OpenSource tools that can do these sorts of checks?

Thanks
