If you are saying that WinPcap 3.0 alpha4 (the current version) doesn't
work on Windows XP, have you told the WinPcap developers about this?  If
not, be aware that they will probably eventually stop offering WinPcap
2.3 for download, and if the final version of 3.0 doesn't work on XP,
that'll mean there won't be a version of WinPcap available for Windows
XP, so you *should* tell the WinPcap developers about this if you
haven't already done so.
