[Winpcap-users] Winpcap blocking Internet Connection

[Anshuman Aggarwal]

GV,
 Thanks for your suggestions....I had attempted both of these (uninstalling 
netmon and Winpcap) ....however this is complicated by one other aspect...

My net connection has worked before with WinPcap .... I am not sure what 
caused this change that has made it stop working...

IS IT possible that WinPcap is providing some function when it is running 
which the TCPIP stack (possibly corrupted is no longer doing?) 

Everything works fine once Ethereal is running

ALSO, one interesting note...sometimes the ethernet connection works if it is 
connected at startup even without the Ethereal running 


Any help is appreciated,

Thanks
