[Winpcap-users] Error opening adapter. The system can not find thedevice specified.

[Gianluca Varenni]

Can you create a small application showing this behavior?

Otherwise, please use the debug version of packet.dll available at
http://www.winpcap.org/bugs.htm and send me the winpcap_debug.txt log file.

Have a nice day
