    Add my favorite pen-test LiveCD distros:
    Whoppix: http://www.whoppix.net/
    and Necromantux (Spanish): http://necromantux.gpul.org/

    And you can even use them with VMWare, if you are using Windows.

The only people for me are the mad ones -- the ones who are mad to live,
mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time,
the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn
like fabulous yellow Roman candles.
