Lucian,
My intention is to build a personal firewall but only for a LAN
netcard (I have read about the leak of PPP standardisation but
that is not a problem for me). There are some other reasons for
I can't build a firewall?
The Pcap library (for UNIX), and its Windows equivalent, WinPcap,
Please install the latest Platform SDK from Microsoft.
Cheers,
fulvio

You read the docs bad :)
WinPcap cannot filter data, so can't do a firewall
(if it did, you'd have to add the support for dialup, since winpcap doesn't work
with with PPP).
WinPcap is quite popular, have seen it in
commercial apps...the ones thatare most useful to me is Ethereal and Nmap
No PPP is not a reason for WinPcap being incapable
of being a firewallit's the way it's made. It won't allow you to block
anything because it's not NDIS or TDI filter, it's a protocol wrapper based on
TDI (from what I gathered), so it only gets data that passes through, and it can

I do not feel that there is much of a security risk,
but our clients may be concerned by software, which
provides remote captures. Does the WinPcap 3.0
installer also install the rpcapd service on Windows
9x/ME? If so, is the method of removal similar to
that described in my original email (i.e.
