We haven't actually tested Nessus or N-Stealth yet. We talked to
Foundstone and they told us their scanner wouldn't work because of
the way SP2 firewall works. Basically this question came up when our
other network administrator was setting up his new laptop. We didn't
have any issues prior to this because the laptops with these scanners
installed were both Win 2000 Professional. I want to make sure we'll
still be able to use our vulnerability scanning software before I
upgrade my machine to Win XP SP2.


Are they the people who are claiming that the firewall still kills their
product even when its switched off?
