Richard,

can you please provide a sample app showing the problem?

Which version of WinPcap are you using? WinPcap 3.1 has a known bug that affects services based on WinPcap, bug that has been fixed in the newer versions of WinPcap like 4.0alpha1.

Have a nice day
GV

  Hi.

  I'm getting exactly the same thing.  Did you ever get a solution to this problem?

  It seems to have something to do with findalldevs being called from a new thread and not the process's main thread.

  Thanks
  RichardB
