Pointers to Free Web Vulnerability Scanners for Blackbox testing

[rajivvishwa () gmail com]

Hi Guys,

I've been assigned to a project in which i'm asked to get a report on vulnerabilities present in a website hosted by my 
client. I'm new to blackbox testing on web applications. The duration of the project is 1.5 months. Can anyone comment 
on the following points
1. What are the important things to remember while doing blackbox web app testing?
2. Suggest some best free tools which are available to perform the test?
3. Where do i find the recommendation in case the tools reports various vulns in the site?
4. What is the traffic generated on the site due to the test?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Regards,
Rajiv,
