Tests a web server for vulnerability to the Slowloris DoS attack without actually launching a DoS attack.

Slowloris was described at Defcon 17 by RSnake
(see http://ha.ckers.org/slowloris/).

This script opens two connections to the server, each without 
the final CRLF. After 10 seconds, second connection sends 
additional header. Both connections then wait for server timeout.
If second connection gets a timeout 10 or more seconds after the
first one, we can conclude that sending additional header prolonged
it's timeout and that the server is vulnerable to slowloris DoS attack.

You can specify custom http User-agent field with <code>http.useragent</code>
script argument.
