Also, i see no Grendel Scan, which is my fav now. Has its own tests plus incorporates the Nikto DB.

Also Paros provides functionality to scan for input validation, its should be considered as well. Burp is much better but not open source =(

@ChrisG - I was surprised too, judging from some of the 'additional comments' they were voting for the Metasploit Framework itself and not the web application modules which was what was intended.
@Jhaddix - Grendel and Paros completely slipped my mind. I added an 'other' option which some people did vote for other applications which weren't on the list.
I think in future I am going to leave the poll run for longer and try to spread the word a little more to get more submissions.

Jhaddix, just out of curiosity, why do you like Grendel Scan the best? I thought that the best feature about Grendel is its ability to easily pass authentication to the app your are scanning. W3AF is a complete pain when it comes to that. I tend to use Grendel (actually from your recommendation a while back) when I need to scan content only available to authenticated users.
I still fall back to w3af for most of everything else. It seems to have more scans and interfaces with BEEF and others, which I like.

To be honest I have never used Grendel, I have seen it installed in BackTrack but never had a play. I agree that w3af's authentication settings do need improving, from the top of my head I think w3af uses a cookie jar file from an old version of Firefox?!
Off to play with Grendel.

Yep, cookiejar it is. It's clunky.
