Sniffers: Although not specifically designed to be hacking tools, sniffers can be used to find many types of clear-text network traffic.
Session Hijacking: This takes the techniques discussed with sniffing to the next level. Hijacking makes it possible to not only watch traffic but actually intercept and take control of a valid connection.
