Well, i listened to a talk on the Chemnitzer Linux Tage 2007, it was right before that new law, and the referent said,
that it is not clearly defined if such a tool would be illegal or not, because you can actually use it to gain passwords etc.,
but since this is not the intention of the program it is not clear as I already said.
After all if you just use it for your own network I think there should be no problem :)
If you want to use it at work, I would recommend asking at the appropriate institution (law department or so)
I myself live in Germany and use this tool for network issues in my private LAN.
