I use Firefox with IEtab extension and Burp Suite.

WebScarab is good too.

Another option for Burp is Paros if you want some choice.

My favourite is definately Burp though.

Dear All

I'm looking for web browser that help me in penetration testing of web
applications, there are a lot of scanning tools, but I'm looking for a
basic web browser which allow me to control all the data that send to
or receive from the web server.

There are some grate tools like minibrowser, but with complex
application it did not work fine unless you use "Internet Explorer" as
a browser, and you will lose the benefits of this browser.

Unfortunately, I can't find other browser that does the same thing.
What I'm looking for is a simple application, before send or receiving
any value from the web server asks the user to confirm that data that
will send or will receive, not more then that.

So, If any one know some software or IE plug-in or client proxy that
will help me on this, please send it.

Thanks.
