Awhile back (over 120 days bitcointalk tells me...) I opened a thread on taint analysis tools.  Perhaps there have been new developments that would be of interest to our community.

I am always interested in learning more about how to hide transactions via mixing (or by exchanges or betting sites -- neither of which I have used) and how well the various ways of obscuring origins of incoming bitcoins function.  

The tool I have used is blockchain.info's tool.  It seems to work well enough, in that when I have mixed BTC, especially carefully, the two mixing services I use SEEM to work well, but I am not an expert in BTC.

1)  Are there other taint analysis tools out there?

2)  Are such tools "good enough" in showing vulnerability (I read once that trackers can use IP addresses or similar)?
