how about trying ISS, free download to perform scan on localhost, good tool if you know how to use it
Another good free tool is Nessus (the Nessus "server"runs only on Linux). Nessus can scan different systems for security holes and can even be user configured to search for new security holes as they appear ( or new "sigs" can be downloaded if you don't wish to do your own coding.)
Frankly, I never rely on just one tool to do security testing. So you might want to look at ALL the suggested products.

I use XScan, www.xfocus.org
It has a lot of usefull scan parameters to look for IIS SQL NTPass netbios and other holes and also provides some support to how to fix these holes.

You can use Shadow Security Scan or Retina.
