winpcap works on win8!

1. update windows (compatability update is available)
2. download from http://www.winpcap.org/install/default.htm

I have this issue too. After upgrading to 2.04 my entire comp completetly freezes up every so often (~5mins) unable to move mouse or anything. Windows 8 64bit

Downgrading to 2.02 fixed problem.

I've yet to have any 2.x versions of WP work on any of 3 systems. Win 8 x64, Win 7 x64, or Win 7 x86. It'll usually run for about an hour then magically crash but not tell me. Have to swipe the mouse over the icon in the systray to get it go away (Windows related, yes).

I went from 20k-30k key presses a day to 26k total since updating to 2.x shortly after release.

I've even recently formated my 32-bit Win 7 box and tried it again 2.0.1 - 2.0.4 .. Same thing.

WinPCap works on my Win8 Enterprise edition though. And the .2 and .3 are in the forums only. What's ironic is while I'm writing this post, WhatPulse just crashed. I hope we can revert back to the 1.7 version since it's getting a little annoying with the bugs. I know this isn't really a commercial product and we are in no position to complain, but at least updates on the next fixes would be great

I just now found out it has been whatpulse that has been freezing my mouse and keyboard every few minutes. I spent 100$ on ram and a new mouse to no avail. :/

If only the next version works just like 2.0.2 which doesn't have the freezing problem, but with improved stability of 2.0.4

Win Pcap with the WP install doesn't work on Windows 8. It has issues. I ran the installation in Administrator mode, and it installed perfectly.


Though, this stuttering of the mouse, is absolutely, insane.


ETA on a fix?!

I can confirm this issue. Whatpulse version installed: 2.0.4
Keeps freezing just for a lil second every 5 min or so.
Really annoying when playing Counterstrike
