Hello!

Can somebody guide me on detecting a sniffer on my network. can i still detect a sniffer even if the computer running the sniffer has disabled the TCP/IP stack or decompiled it altogether from the kernel. can i somehow go onto the datalink layer and use 802.3 protocol to test for the presence of the sniffer.

Thankyou.

Jonny
