DigiCert SSL Certificate Discovery Tool
With the SSL Discovery Tool you can perform manual and automatic scans. Manual scanning lets you search your network by a list of hosts or IP ranges or by a Host Group. Auto scanning allows you to schedule periodic scans at specified intervals (daily, weekly, or monthly) in order to detect and be notified of changes to your active certificate inventory. Both manual and automatic scans give you a detailed report of their findings.

Internet Explorer on Windows and Mozilla provide a method for client side javascript to make HTTP requests. This allows you to make HEAD requests to see when a resource was last modified, or to see if it even exists. It makes your scripting options more flexible allowing for POST requests without having the page change, and opens up the possibility of using PUT, DELETE etc. Why XML HTTP Request object?
