Pentesting a WEP-protected wifi network

Hello list, I am currenty trying to pentest a wireless network protected with WEP (not sure if 40/64 or 104/128 bit). I would like to know what are the best tools to use if the equipment I have for the pentest is an XP workstation with a 802.11b D-link wireless card. I know there are many tools for Unix / Linux with certain wifi cards, but I would like to prove if it is feasible to break a WEP key with just an XP and any wifi card. Thanks in advance for your help and best regards, Rodrigo. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Audit your website security with Acunetix Web Vulnerability Scanner: Hackers are concentrating their efforts on attacking applications on your website.
