Fine.

So here is my output, I have included version output:
------------------------
C:\Temp\Giftschrank>windump.exe -D
1.\Device\Packet_{58634D63-6C4F-4607-AEB3-A1BBB4EA120A} (Intel 
8255x-based Integ
rated Fast Ethernet (Microsoft's Packet Scheduler) )
2.\Device\Packet_NdisWanIp (NdisWan Adapter (Microsoft's Packet Scheduler) )


C:\Temp\Giftschrank>windump.exe -V
windump.exe version 3.6.2, based on tcpdump version 3.6.2
WinPcap version 2.3, based on libpcap version 0.6.2
Usage: windump.exe [-adDeflnNOpqStuvxX] [-B size] [-c count] [ -F file ]
               [ -i interface ] [ -r file ] [ -s snaplen ]
               [ -T type ] [ -w file ] [ expression ]

C:\Programme\Ethereal>tethereal -D


C:\Programme\Ethereal>tethereal --version
tethereal: illegal option -- -
tethereal 0.9.1, with GLib 1.3.2, with libpcap (version unknown), with 
libz 1.1.
3, with UCD SNMP 4.2.2
------------------------

As you can see, the list from "-D" is just empty.
tetheral does not give the version for libpcap.
Could that be related to my problem ?
