Browstat.exe: Browser Status Utility

This command-line tool is a general purpose character-based browser diagnostic tool. Use BrowStat to view the status of running browsers in Windows Server 2003 domains. This tool also provides information about the state of the browser, including the name of the master browser.

You can also find out which transports are on a computer. In this context, "transport" refers to the Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 network device name (case-insensitive) for a transport.
