Not my favorite scanner but a good one none the lease. It is a great tool to use to check what ports are open on a machine or network entry point. Also because it does not attempt to mask the probing you can use it to test you IDS systems.
SuperScan v3.0 - Powerful TCP port scanner, pinger, resolver.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SuperScan is a powerful connect-based TCP port scanner, pinger and hostname resolver. Multithreaded and asynchronous techniques make this program extremely fast and versatile.
Perform ping scans and port scans using any IP range.
Use a text file to extract addresses from.
Scan any port range from a built-in list or any given range.
View responses from connected hosts.
Modify the port list and port descriptions using the built in editor.
Merge port lists to build new ones.
Connect to any discovered open port using user-specified "helper" applications.
Assign a custom helper application to any port.
Save the scan list to a text file.
Transmission speed control.
User friendly interface.
Comprehensive help file.
This is first and foremost a tool for network administrators. Do not attempt to use this program against computers on the Internet that you have no right to scan since you are highly likely to be tracked down and attract the attention of your ISP, possibly resulting in your account being terminated.
SuperScan is a regular top download at several network security web sites including PacketStorm and Security Focus.

SuperScan is indeed a very good port scanner with a lot of nice features. I think it is one of the best port-scanners to use for a windows vs. windows platform. NMAP on windows, I always found to be a bit buggy and not as efficient when compared to how it runs on a *nix platform. 
GSecur-- What is your favorite port-scanner (other than NMAP heh heh)? Just curious...

Yeah I would concider it to be the best port scanner available for windows as nmap is pretty tricky to get working (sif use windows to scan in the first place 
) but none the less a very powerfull tool

If ya got the dough, and run Windows, check out eEye's Retina. Darn good.
nmap 3.48 rocks- even on Windows, but yeah, still faster on Unix.

you can download the linux or win32 version of nmap. i've heard a lot of people say that the win32 version isn't as good as the linux version though.
