How can i Turn off network when capturing?
(a way easy to get back please)

if you are using XP you can go into network neighborhood and right click your network connection, and choose disable.

If you have Windows 98 and your Network Card starts with a 'N' here's a small program that brings up the System Properties and Disables the Network with key press automatically. It's written in VB6
I have another version that force reboots afterwords for a clean capture setup.

ok, lets wait the attachment

bur "starting with a N" :confused:

[jcsston]

ok It send KeyPresses.

SendKeys "{RIGHT}"
SendKeys "{TAB}"
SendKeys "{TAB}"
SendKeys "N"
SendKeys "{RIGHT}"
SendKeys "N"
SendKeys "%R"
SendKeys "%D"
SendKeys "{ENTER}"
Sleep (2000)
AppActivate "System Properties"
SendKeys "{ENTER}"
the %'s stands for Alt
I can easily change the N to whatever the first letter of your network adapter name in "System Properties" is.

To re-enable your network just run it again :D
