If you are really concerned about this - I wouldn't wast time trying to catch those instances where someone is being 
sloppy (which is all you will catch with anything designed to find nics in promisc. mode).

You would be better served to look into encrypting all of the traffic on your LAN.

Securing Apache Web Server with thawte Digital Certificate
In this guide we examine the importance of Apache-SSL and who needs an SSL certificate.  We look at how SSL works, how 
it benefits your company and how your customers can tell if a site is secure. You will find out how to test, purchase, 
install and use a thawte Digital Certificate on your Apache web server. Throughout, best practices for set-up are 
highlighted to help you ensure efficient ongoing management of your encryption keys and digital certificates.
