ELZA & Brutus

ELZA & Brutus
Some time later I heard about a tool called Elza. What a neat tool. It basically does all the stuff that I have done in the PERL scripts. It uses a kind of scripting language that takes a bit of getting used it - but that is VERY powerful. The docs on Elza has a nice example for creating 10000 random hotmail accounts :) Elza will handle cookies, HTTP redirection and URL state strings. It also has extensive support for brute forcing web based authentication schemes. Very nice.
Even later I had a look at a program called Brutus (for Windows). Brutus will actually learn a CGI form, and gives you the ability to brute force any part of the form. It works for most types of forms, but I have found that in some intense environments, Brutus does not cut it.
