Zonealarm and sniffer tools

Hi,

I would like to analyze the internet communication by using a sniffer
program, however, when Zonealarm is running, all sniffers I tried are only
tracking incoming packets.
Is there a way to record also the outgoing packets without deactivating
Zonealarm? I use Windows 2000 with Service Pack 4.
Thank you very much in advance.

Sounds like you have a filter setup on the sniffer. It should catch both
ways.

A good and free sniffer is wireshark.

Thanks, it works :-)
It seems the error was caused by a missing "WinPCap" driver. The other
tools I had tried before did not automatically install that driver and
then run in the "raw ip" mode. Probably this was the reason why they could
only track the incoming packets.
