Sam Spade Download is below, it’s one of the oldest network security tools around in terms of a neat package containing a lot of stuff you need, it’s one of the first things I used when I got into information security and I was on a crusade against spammers and scammers.
It has all kinds of useful tools in a neat graphical interface, a lot of them are available on the command line in Windows – but they aren’t so easy to use. It’s extremely useful for tracking spam or ‘UCE’ as it’s known (Unsolicited Commercial E-mail).
Features of Sam Spade
Some of the features included are:
- Ping
- NSlookup
- Whois
- IP block search
- Dig
- Traceroute
- Finger
- SMTP VRFY
- Web browser keep-alive
- DNS zone transfer
- SMTP relay check
- Usenet cancel check
- Website download
- Website search
- Email header analysis
- Email blacklist
- Query Abuse address
Some other cool stuff it does is:
- Each tool displays it’s output in it’s own window, and everything is multi-threaded so you don’t need to wait for one query to complete before starting the next one
- Some functions are threaded still further to allow lazy reverse DNS lookups (never do a traceroute -n again)
- The output from each query is hotlinked, so you can right click on an email address, IP address, hostname or internic tag to run another query on it
- Appending the results of a query to the log window is a single button function
- There’s a lot of online help, in both WinHelp and HTMLHelp formats. This includes tutorials, background information and links to online resources as well as the program manual itself
