so you have your home net configured for 169.254 addy's?

i guess thats a new one for introducing plausible deniability :-)

well, all i can say is make sure you installed pcap after enabling and
logging in as the Administrator account in vista.

if you dont want to run the app as Admin, change the acl's in
hklm/software/winpcap and "x:\program files", blah blah.

I had nmap 420 (no .1) working fine on my TM4200+ulitmate+3945abg in
the last release of vista from the TAP program, so it is possible..
unless nmap checks for the 169.254 and then craps out..
