Re: Fwd: zenmap

Hi Andy,

The first screenshot shows that Nmap 4.11 is run by Zenmap, rather than
Nmap 4.76. IIRC only versions 4.2x and higher work properly on Vista,
hence the error message it displays. I would suggest searching your system
for instances of nmap.exe, and remove any old versions of Nmap that you
find.

The second screenshot's error message is normal if WinPcap's wpcap.dll is
present, and would suggest that it's correctly installed on your system. I
suspect once you remove the old copies of Nmap you'll discover that
WinPcap is properly installed. If you want to make sure WinPcap is
installed properly, you should be able to use the official WinPcap
installer (from http://www.winpcap.org/install/default.htm) to force an
install over any existing versions.

For reference, uninstalling Nmap doesn't uninstall WinPcap from the
system, which is why you would have seen the error message when you
re-installed Nmap. Look for "winpcap-nmap 4.02" in Vista's list of
programs that can be uninstalled if you want to remove Nmap's version of
WinPcap (IIRC, the official WinPcap installer provides a link to the
uninstaller in the Start Menu).
