[Windump] problems with windump on vista os

[P Moorhouse]

Hi There, 
I'm trying to get windump working on my vista o/s and failing. My vista O/S version is Version	6.0.6002 Service Pack 2 Build 6002.


I have installed the following windump/pcap versions:


winpcap      4.1 
WinDump    3.9.3


When i go to my command line and type windump i get the attached error.  This corresponds to FAQ entry point 13 though checking the pcap FAQ Q28, it seems I am using a supported pcap/windump combination.


I should say that I am able to see some output (attached in txt file) from windump but only under specific conditions.  These are as follows:


- right click windump.exe, select run as administrator.
- turn my wireless adapter on
- turn it off 


I am not able to add any command line switches (for example to listen on different network adapters).  I am not able to see any output when pinging a website from an additional command line window.  I am not able to see any output when opening up a browser and navigating to a website.


Any advice you can give would be greatly appreciated.


Yours Faithfully.


Peter
