Howingodsname do you casually throw quality open source tools like Nessus
and nmap into the soup with ShieldsUp?

Gibson is an excitable, borderline crackpot, and ShieldsUp is good for
making people little more than aware, if not nervous.

With nmap, Fydor has advanced the state-of-the-art.  Many times!  Of course,
a good tool does not convey expertise to its user...
