Microsoft used to have a free tool called WAST (Web Application Stress
Test). If you can find it, it is a good tool for basic stress testing. With
VS.NET Enterprise Architect, MIcrosoft now has the Application Center Test
(ACT), which has more features.
Mercury Interactive has the most full-featured tools in this space. Note
that they are rather pricey, but good for businesses that need serious
testing. The programming language allows for easy scripting of multiple,
different users, but you have to know C to get anywhere with it.

Hi,
I'm nearing the end of my site development (currently ASP and Access
moving to SQL) and am looking for site testing tools...
In particular looking for load testing and concurrent connection analysis
to see where site might be heavy or pages leave connections open!
Can anyone recommend good testing software that can give information on
the above...
Thanks in advance
Lee
