You'll have to get the Device drivers Developer's Kit
(DDK). Nowadays, the really means a subscription to
MSDN. The cheapest way to get that is to pick up a
copy of Visual C++ that includes a limited time subscription
to MSDN. Student discounts on VC++ are usually pretty good.
Anyway, there are examples for packet monitoring and
packet drivers in there. That's what you'll need for a starting
point.
