IITk Features

[Todd Shipley]

The Internet Investigator's Toolkit is a compact Java tool that enables quick assessment, from the online investigator's desktop, of information about websites and other online activities.

Its features include:

Whois provides domain registration information lookup.
MX provides mail server records lookup.
Netstat provides information and statistics about protocols in use, along with current TCP/IP network connections.
Ping determines whether a specific IP address is accessible. It works by sending a packet to the specified address and waiting for a reply. Ping is used primarily to troubleshoot Internet connections.
Resolve is a utility that resolves a host URL to an IP address, or an IP address to a server which hosts that IP address.
Traceroute traces and records the route a packet travels from your computer to an Internet host. It shows how many hops the packet requires to reach the host, and how long each hop takes.
TCP/IP shows the current configuration of the user's network connections.
Stats shows certain information about the user’s computer, including:

-Microsoft Windows version
-hard drive label and serial number
-active TCP/IP connections
-interface lists
-IP v4 and 6 routing tables
-persistent routes

WebCase opens WebCase if the user has it installed, or takes the user to the Vere Software homepage.
About provides the tool's version number and the manufacturer's information.
Exit closes the tool.
