Just to direct the topic a little bit:
Can anyone also recomed some good general pen-testing tools? So
something that is not specific to web application testing. Doesn't have
to be open source. Something a long the lines of Nessus.
Thanks,

Hi All,
I am currently looking at using/evaluating a tool called AppScan (by
watchfire.com).
So the question is in two parts and ASAP reply would be greatly
appreciated.
First:
Without starting a flame war (hopefully) or marketing campaign (another
hopefully) can any one tell me abut their experience with the software,
what you find useful about it, what not, any annoyances, missing
functionality, etc.
Second:
Can anyone recommend any simular type of software, preferably open
source (although not at all essential), and describe its performance,
usability and "usefulness" so to speak using AppScan as a reference
point.
Thanks,
Serg
