Got spare cash?

Or at one time L0pht had a product called "antisniff", but I am sure it cost $$$$ now that they bedded up with @Stake.
Lock down the permissions to make it difficult for them... I would also sneak in a software audit on them.
Cheers!

There is really no way (that I know of) to detect if a device is listening to the network in promiscuous mode.
If users have sufficient control of their machines to set the network port to promiscuous mode, then:
If they are connected to the network using hubs, there is no way to stop them
from listening to traffic.
If they are connected to the network using switches, and they do not have the capability
of setting the switch to pass all traffic to their switch port, they will only be able
to capture their own network traffic.

Hello, ethereal-users,
If I have suspected that someone in my LAN has installed Ethereal on
his/her PC. How do I block Ethereal from monitoring my LAN traffic?
Thank you.
Best regards.
