On windows you have at (on the command line) and the scheduled tasks (from the control panel).

Have a nice day

Use tshark instead (http://www.wireshark.org/docs/man-pages/tshark.html).

Try
-aduration:10800 (3 hours in seconds)

For writing the results to a file, you can either redirect the output
with '>' for decoded stuff or just use '-w' to write it out raw so you
can open it with Wireshark later.

...and note that neither Wireshark nor TShark themselves have any
mechanism for *starting* them at a specified time.

However, the OS on which you're running it might, e.g. cron or at on
UN*Xes.  I think there's some equivalent on Windows NT ("NT" meaning NT
4.0, 2000, XP, Server 2K3, Vista, and Server 2K8), but I don't know what
it is offhand.
