('binary' encoding is not supported, stored as-is) Hi pen-testers,

I need to perform some basic password guessing tests on a France based online application.

I am contemplating using Brutus (http://www.hoobie.net/brutus/) for the testing.

Could you please recommend similar tools that could perform:
- brute force attacks
- dictionnary attacks
on a web based FORM ?

Selection criterias might include tolerance to timeout, as well as speed, ability to interrupt/resume a test.

I am also looking for French specific dictionnaries that could help for this type of testing.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

sbm
