one of my favorites for "personal" use is a medical drug dictionary i found, no real function other than a database of most known pharms.
fav "security" software programs would have to be langaurd[spelling?], packetmon, and net iq
i also like acrobat for ebooks and whatnot

i guess thats five or whatever

nmap its the best of the best or so far as I have found at scanning and it tells you the services

A little less than tradional poll..

What are your top 5 favorite / most used / most useful programs to you in how you secure or test your systems, networks or developed software?

Specfics like platform, opensource/commercial, genre (wifi, scanner, etc) and whatnot would be cool too. Why? (for example, what specifically about the program causes you to put it in your top 5)
