You know, I feel really bad ragging on RealSecure this way, but I'm sure Marcus
shares my fustration of going up against ISS's marketing $$$. While I share the
sentiment behind Marcus's statement above :-), don't believe us. All the
vendors will send you eval versions. Grag them, install them, and run attack
scripts like fragrouter and whisker against them. You will see both how easy
these attacks scripts are to run, as well as how easily they skate right on
past RealSecure but get snagged by the rest of us.
