I think that under NT4 you need tcp/ip in order to capture with winpcap. The
reason, if I remember well, is that NT4 donesn't have the "72" registry hive
(\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\\Class\\{4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
), and so winpcap forced to gather information about the adapters from
SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Services\\Tcpip\\Linkage, which is present only
when tcp/ip is installed.
