DDoSPing is a remote scanner for the most common Distributed Denial of Service programs (often called Zombies by the press). These were the programs responsible for the recent rash of attacks on high profile web sites.
This tool will detect Trinoo, Stacheldraht and Tribe Flood Network programs running with their default settings, although setup of each program type is possible from the configuration screen. Scanning is performed by sending the appropriate UDP and ICMP messages at a controlable rate to a user defined range of addresses.
