WinPCcap

WinPCap.

Not a fan.

If anybody has used this program before, and got it to work on a standard install of Win98SE, then I'd be really interested to hear from them. I can install it just fine, I can even run WinDump, however, as soon as I try to capture any data whatsoever... my computer just looks at me blankly... I think there might be something wrong with one of my COM ports... but whatever it is, its making me very frustrated...

"what data? I cant see no data. Do you mean the bazillion TCP connections? Nope.. cant see them... not looking! Ner ner ni ner ner..."

Ahhh.... horseshit.



Hullo. My Name's Forest. Forest Gump.
Update on the WinPCap thing... turns out that it was Microsoft's fault. (now theres a shock!). Their VPN drivers for 98 are a little screwy and were taking over from the standard PPP drivers... controling bastards. *sniff* Anyway... I'm now viewing lots of lovely network traffic, and somehow trying to get a nice idea of how I'm supposed to graph a TCP connection packet....

'parently, they're interesting....

Life is like a box of Microsoft... too expensive, and full of assholes.
