    Hello,

    On nmap.org you'll be able to download the latest nmap which is
    IMHO a better tool and you'll be able to read about the differences that
    were implemented in the SP2 TCP/IP stack which causes the problem you
    encounter and how to partly by-pass them.

    Hope it helps,
    Guillaume

    Subject: superscan on win2k vs winxp

    hello friends!!

    I am using superscan to scan hosts for possible open ports.But
    surprsingly ,if i scan it from windows 2000 and windows xp with sp2
    the results differ.

    When i scan from xp it gives no open ports and when i scan from
    windows 2000,it gives certain ports open.

    Does anyone have any idea regarding this?

    If tcp/ip stack is implemented differently on both the opertaing
    systems then can anyone tell me how i can get tcp/ip stack info on my
    xp and 2k machine?

    I think superscan is multithreaded ,can anyone suggest me other
    multithreaded scanners?

    Regards,
    Pavan Shah.
