Hi,

Q-15 in WinPcap says :

Remember, it is not safe to run these versions under smp machines, since

I'v commented initialization check for processor count in npf.sys sources
and recompiled it.
I'm using it on my SMP machine. A few programs that use winpcap are running
and everythings looks ok.
I've compared results with other programs that don't ude wpcap ant results
are the same.
Do someone know what "the results are generally wrong" exactly mean ?

Szymek
