Zx Sniffer uses a custom packet capture driver that is very similar to WinPcap, which conflicts with WinPcap. You have to uninstall ZxSniffer to make WinPcap working. Q-21: My application doesn’t see any traffic being sent by the machine running WinPcap. A: If you are running some form of VPN client software, it might be causing this problem; people have seen this problem when they have Check Point’s VPN software installed on their machine. If that’s the cause of the problem, you will have to remove the VPN software in order to make the application see outgoing packets.
