[Updated] Security Tools (Ping, Traceroute, Whois, Port Testing)
 

This is a 1.0 release and is looking for people to try it out. The application allows for pinging a host, trace the path to a host, do Whois lookups on domain names, and even test ports. You can download it from http://www.securenetworksystems.com/SecurityTools/ and can get a demo license from http://www.securenetworksystems.com/...ools/demo.aspx that will give you a week of testing the software. The image below shows a trace that is mapped out.

We are releasing this for testing before it goes up for sell, so any productive feedback is appreciated. Please note that full installation size is around 45MB (due to a database size), so it is a good idea to verify you have enough space on your phone/device or install to a storage card.

45 MEGS?! WHOA!!! I would love to have these capabilities, but thats just not worth it.

I know it's a lot when compared to most installations. But it's not really that bad, I usually just install it to a external storage card, and is 45MB really that big of a dent in a 1Gig or larger card? The application itself is pretty minimum in size, it's mainly the database that is large. We are also looking at doing an advanced installer where the database would be included in the download but not in the cab install, but you could copy the database onto the external card and point to it from within the program and install the program to the device itself (you could technically not even have the database, just live without the location information, and just do a simply trace). Would that be preferred for some? That cuts the size down to around 400KB (I know, it's a HUGE difference) but the mapping becomes useless without the database.

I added some additional images so you can see some of the other cool functionality. The only that isn't shown is the WHOIS lookup.
