It's probably too late to add anything new (sorry, I have not read the
entire thread) but here's what I'd do:

1- search for "webblaze" on google
Results show you are likely facing a web app from "CT Summation" aimed
at law firms and/or firms concerned with legal litigation.

2- check CT Summation's web page, check the product brochure, etc.
Results show that "WebBlaze" runs on win2k or win2003 servers, it
requires IIS 5.0 or above, the .NET framework 1.1 (so its possibly
written in ASP.NET), also MDAC 2.7, MS XML 3.0, IE 6.0 and that clients
should have IE 5.5 or above with relaxed ActiveX security settings for a
specific webblaze component to work, backend integration probably
requires an specific domain account for the application to use...

3- Verify if any or all of the above applies to the particular IP
address you have.

If yes...

4- From 2 and 3 you can derive a good set of plausible attack vectors,
including using XSS bugs to obtain valid credentials from legitimate
users (due to the nice ActiveX relaxation)

5- With all the above information in mind, now use whatever tools you
deem useful... nmap is certainly one of them, a web vuln scanner is
another one, exploit code for specific bugs in the identified
technologies will be useful: generic win2k/win2003 server bugs, IIS 5.0
bugs,etc.

hope that helps,
