[Winpcap-users] Winpcap 4.0.2, Windows Vista (Business edition & SP1)

[Eddie Ehlin]

Hi GV,

I have now installed the WinPcap (4.1 beta4) and I have now been able to 
send a packet using the sendpack-example. Though
the application hangs after it has sent the packet, so I guess there 
still is some issues that need to be handled...

I'm  open for ideas!

Best regards,
Eddie
