I suggest you become well aquainted with the multitude of Knoppix Live CD's that are built for Security. The two off the top of my head that I would reccomend are "The Auditor" and "Knoppix-STD". You should be able to find these with your favorite search engine. You will not have very much success using Windows XP sp2 unless your idea of a pen test is telnet 10.1.1.1 80 .. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Audit your website security with Acunetix Web Vulnerability Scanner: Hackers are concentrating their efforts on attacking applications on your website.
