No.  The libpcap code is sufficiently high above the kernel-mode code  
(which is what's wedging up, if you have *that* much of a freeze) that  
it's extremely unlikely to be causing such a problem.

WinPcap 3.1 has been out of beta for quite a while.  The current  
release of WinPcap isn't the "next beta", it's the final 3.1 release;  
the current beta release of WinPcap is 4.0 beta 1, not 3.1 beta  
anything.  Have you tried the final 3.1 release?  If that doesn't  
work, have you tried 4.0 beta 1?
