    I'm running WinPCap 3.1 Beta 3 on XP SP2. I did some quick Ethereal,
    latest version 0.10.6, captures this morning to verify and everything
    appears to be running normally. I didn't have time to test in depth but
    no issues noted from a quick and dirty spot check.

    Regards,

    I just this week installed XP, SP2.

    All my WinPCap apps have ceased to function.

    I permitted Ethereal, etc... No packets coming in.

    I believe I read an article that stated that Microsoft removed the raw
    sockets api or something-or-another.

    I second the refute. Please check the configuration and that ethereal
    is a
    permitted application? If you are in active directory, check your group
    policy?

    I also have been using SP2 since beta and it appears to be working just
    fine.

    I refute this claim, I have been using XP SP2 since Beta and now as a
    final
    release and ethereal works fine for me.
