Freeware

THC-Scan is a free war dialer released by "van Hauser" of The Hacker's Choice (THC), a European hacker/phreaker group. The current version, 2.0, was released in late 1998. This DOS-based tool is widely considered to be more robust than Tone-Loc, another popular DOS-based free tool that has not been updated since 1994.1 Created by Minor Threat and Mucho Maas, ToneLoc is sometimes preferred by those who have had technical difficulties with THC-Scan because of a particular modem. Since ToneLoc can only dial phone number ranges, not random numbers, it may be used by those who don't need to import phone numbers.

For those who think they've seen everything, I'll briefly mention one last free tool: TBA (it's actual name), a war dialer for the Palm OS platform (www.l0pht.com/~kingpin/pilot.html). TBA version 1.0 was recently released by Kingpin of The L0pht (now aligned with security consulting firm @Stake). The program requires a Palm Pilot and either a Palm Modem or an external modem. Although a Palm Pilot war dialer is probably not a practical solution for most security professionals, it certainly provides a new war dialing platform option with a very small footprint.
