<DIV><FONT size=2>WinPcap is another protocol driver that works in parallel to
the other protocols like TCP/IP. So it will sit on top of the IM driver and
there shouldn't be any problem (if the IM driver is well written and it's not
some NDIS hook thing). Wrt performance, you might have a performance hit when
you capture, for the simple reason that you are capturing packets and bringing
them to the sniffing application.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2>Have you encountered problems using WinPcap over an IM driver?
Can you please provide more details?</FONT></DIV>
