Upgrading to winpcap 3.1 beta 3 solved the problem you described below
on my winxp pro system.

HELP!! Any ideas sincerely appreciated!!! 

FYI. I am brand new to this list, so forgive me if this question is
redundant.  

For a long time, I successfully used nmap_1.3.1. with winpcap on an
WinXP pro laptop.  One sad day, I went to scan a network, and NMAP just
could not find any nodes, even with just a simple ping scan.

Knowing I was past due to upgrade, deleted the old winpcap and NMAP, and
installed winpcap_3_0 and nmap-3.55-SP2-win32.  Still no luck.  When I
manually ping and then scan a test workstation on my network, here is
the result:


C:\Documents and Settings\nmap355>ping 192.168.0.101

Pinging 192.168.0.101 with 32 bytes of data:

Ping statistics for 192.168.0.101:
    Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
    Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms

OK that worked, so.

C:\Documents and Settings\nmap355>nmap -sP 192.168.0.101

try -P0

With a sniffer on the same PC running NMAP, I can see both the ICMP echo
and TCP 80 Resets sent and the corresponding replies being returned from
192.168.0.1.

Here are some of the things I have tried:

1) I double-checked that winpcap was activated by launching msinfo32 and
verifying that the NPF driver was running.

2) I disabled all drivers (except TCP/IP) associated with the NIC

3) I tried a different NIC (my wireless card which worked is the past) 

4) I verified that no firewall, VPN, or antivirus software was activated

5) I tried shutting off all services that I thought may be relative.

6) Gave up and subscribed to this mailing list where higher forms of
intelligence are bound to exist.  HELP!!!

Thanks in advance for any tips!
