Hello, Today suddenly Ethereal/WinPCap is not working anymore ? I have two possible explanations for this: 1. VMWare somehow disabled/crippled Ethereal/WinPCap ? 2. Windows update considered WinPCap "dangerous software" ?

I have two possible explanations for this:

1. VMWare somehow disabled/crippled Ethereal/WinPCap ?

2. Windows update considered WinPCap "dangerous software" ?

Don't know, but I think Ethereal died and was replaced with
"Wireshark" (still freeware) quite a while ago. Uninstall Ethereal
and try installing Wireshark.

HTH,
John
