Two Tools To Try

Usually I post about stuff I've tried. Not this time.

The following two tools sound cool, but I have not used them.

Open Source .msi file creation tool, backed by Microsoft
http://sourceforge.net/projects/wix/files/


.NET code security check.
From the download page at MSDN:
"CAT.NET is a binary code analysis tool that helps identify common variants of certain prevailing vulnerabilities that can give rise to common attack vectors such as Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), SQL Injection and XPath Injection."
