Hello Andy,

There are couple of Open source vulnerability scanners. Some of them
are as follows:

1. Nessus -- http://www.nessus.org/download/

2. Asmodeus Network Security scanner for Win NT 4.0 --
http://www.cotse.com/tools/sw/asmod022.zip

3. Co-SARA -- http://www-arc.com/sara/downloads/cosara/cosara-7.3.1.exe

4. VLAD -- http://www.bindview.com/Resources/RAZOR/Files/vlad-0.9.2.tar.gz
