Folks, you might be interested in checking out a network monitoring
tool we launched today, Netalyzr. It's a Java applet you can run by
surfing to netalyzr.com. It aims to measure a bunch of the properties of
and end user's network access, particularly looking for transparent
modifications (e.g., hidden proxies), connectivity restrictions, and some
security issues (e.g., whether the DNS resolver is vulnerable to the
Kaminsky attack).
We've had several thousand users run it today so far, so you may be hearing
about reports your customers have gotten from it. You can see a sample
report at:
