WinpkFilter 3.0.6 released. This service release includes the bugfix for WinpkFilter NDIS IM driver (BSOD on restoring from Hibernate state on Windows Vista).

Important note:
For Windows Vista and later versions of the Windows family of operating systems, kernel-mode software must have a digital signature to load on x64-based computer systems. WinpkFilter drivers are not signed and in order to test them on Vista x64 you should press F8 during system boot and choose Disable Driver Signature Enforcement option. For the commercial software you’d have to obtain Code Signing certificate from Verysign or another Certificate Authority authorized by Microsoft.

VirtNet was updated to support Windows XP/2003 x64.

[Vadim Smirnov]

OK, i will try to find some time on the coming week to update VirtNet 8)

[Vadim Smirnov]

Try installing NDIS IM variant of WinpkFilter driver. Most probably you have another NDIS hooking driver installed by third-party firewall of AV software, which does conflict with WinpkFilter.

[Vadim Smirnov]

What operating system you are using?

[Vadim Smirnov]

Sometimes reboot is required, sometimes not. That depends if network stack can reconfigure dynamically or not.

[Vadim Smirnov]

New version of Local Monitor will be released in next couple of days.

If you try to install WinpkFilter run-time on the fresh copy of Windows XP x64 under Administrator account you should not meet any problems. I don’t know what was the particular reason for the automatic installation to fail, may be lack of privilege to install the driver, may be previous version of WinpkFilter was installed before and was not completely removed before reinstall, may be something else.

WinpkFilter 3.0.5 will be placed for public after pre-release testing completion.

[Vadim Smirnov]

Yes it is possible and this is the right way to drop packets.

[Vadim Smirnov]

So far only the packets statistics (packets this filter was applied to) is accumulated for loaded filters. There is no special event to indicate that the filter was triggered.

[Vadim Smirnov]

Ahh, you mean packets passed without being indicated to user mode. Well, since this packets are supposed to be passed with minimal performance affect they have to no event to trigger.

[Vadim Smirnov]

hi,admin,you said will release a new version in april,but now, is nothing. please please to going fast

Hopefully this week 🙂

[Vadim Smirnov]

It is possible to add a timestamp to packets if needed.
