i never speak about something i never used or at last
i read carefully the docs on the website : )

as you can guess from the url you posted brutus (i don't like
it, these protocols are so dumb you can write your own pwd
bruteforcer using cat and nc, or for intercative logins some
language with fread/fputs functions) is a protocol bruteforcer

Brutus version AET2 is the current release and includes the following 
authentication types :
 HTTP (Basic Authentication)
 HTTP (HTML Form/CGI)
 POP3
 FTP
 SMB
 Telnet
 Other types such as IMAP, NNTP, NetBus etc are freely downloadable 
from this site and simply imported into your copy of Brutus. You can 
create your own types or use other peoples.
