Hello,

Winpcap dont works with Windows XP with SP2.

I'd have to disagree with you... I have Ethereal installed, and it
works fine. I'm not sure what my versions are, but they're probably
the newest ones. Regardless, it works even after I've manually
disabled raw socket access [outside of whatever sp2 does]. Perhaps 
I'm just lucky, but I've yet to have any trouble with it crashing.

Yes, works, but not "by default".
