Hello everyone.
We've just released a new version (2.02) of tcpdump for windows (WinDump),
together with a more complete (and, hopefully, less bugged) version of
libpcap for Windows.

New things are:
- packet driver development split from the WinDump one; packet driver and
the Win32 version of libpcap are now called WinPcap
- Added basic support for Windows 2000 (without ACPI compatibility)
- Support of multiple instances in Windows 95/98
- Statistics mode (you can get just the number of bytes of data / number of
packets that satisfy the filter, instead of the packets)
- Fast multiple writes in Windows NT and Windows 2000
- Bug fixing (a lot...)
- New source code organization
- New documentation, new examples (hopefully in an acceptable English...)
- Changed license terms to Berkeley-style

Windump is downloadable from
http://netgroup-serv.polito.it/windump

Winpcap, that includes the packet driver, libpcap for Win32, developer's
pack, examples and so on is at
http://netgroup-serv.polito.it/winpcap

We'll appreciate your comments, bug fixing and so on.

Cheers,

	Fulvio and Loris
