Wireshark-bugs: [Wireshark-bugs] [Bug 7867] Packets not being recorded when using McAfee HIP Fir

One other capture packet program is WinDump:
http://www.winpcap.org/windump/default.htm
It's a command-line tool. If you can reproduce the problem with it, it's not a
problem with Wireshark, it's a problem with WinPcap, which is the packet
capture mechanism that both Wireshark and WinDump use (and that some other
programs also use).
(WinPcap is libpcap-for-Windows; libpcap is a library that runs atop the
underlying capture mechanisms in many UN*Xes, so a lot of packet analyzers
written for UN*X, such as tcpdump and Wireshark use it. Windows doesn't have
an underlying capture mechanism, so WinPcap has to provide its own driver to
provide one; it connects to the underlying Windows networking stack in a
fashion different from the fashion in which NetMon's driver does, which may be
the source of the problem here.)
