+ipscan (fast and friendly network scanner)
+
+Angry IP Scanner (or simply ipscan) is an open-source and cross-platform network scanner
+designed to be fast and simple to use. It scans IP addresses and ports as well as has many other features. 
+
+It is widely used by network administrators and just curious users around the world
+including large and small enterprises, banks, and government agencies. 
+
+It runs on Linux, Windows, and Mac OS X, possibly supporting other platforms as well.
+
+Angry IP scanner simply pings each IP address to check if it’s alive, then optionally it is
+resolving its hostname, determines the MAC address, scans ports, etc.
+The amount of gathered data about each host can be extended with plugins.
+
+It also has additional features, like NetBIOS information (computer name, workgroup name, and
+currently logged in Windows user), favorite IP address ranges, web server detection, customizable openers, etc.
+
+Scanning results can be saved to CSV, TXT, XML or IP-Port list files.
+With help of plugins, Angry IP Scanner can gather any information about scanned IPs.
+Anybody who can write Java code is able to write plugins and extend functionality of Angry IP Scanner.
