Okay...so I am trying to intercept the messaging service traffic that is on the computer in the room adjacent to mine.  We are both on an 802.11 or whatever wireless network and I have windows.  I can get things in Ethereal like my own traffic...I.E...

I am going to try to perfect this thing so that I can hear what he says, okie?

For some reason I can only pick up my own traffic, but also his AIM traffic.  However, when I pick up his AIM traffic, I cannot decode what it is that he is saying.  I just start the search, hear the ding in the other room and it picks it up and who it's going to but when I try to decipher it all I get it a couple of weird characteristics.  Could it be encrypted?  He's using MSN and AIM.  This is the card that I am using:

IEEE 802.11g Wireless Card.: \Device\NPF_{92540B30-7525-4D64-90D2-ED0B88197777}

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Sincerely,

Matt
