Superscan 3 seemed to have various issues accurately detecting common network

hoobie.net as a good windows port scanner.

Just took a look at these ... Superscan 3 is 4 years old, and Mingsweeper is 3 years old and stopped development shortly before reaching beta stage. Aren't there any more recent reeware scanners around? Or did all the authors go commercial ...
