The only nmap.* files I have are in the nmap installation directory.
Yes, I chose to also install WinPCap. During installation I recall
that the nmap installation paused while the winpcap install ran. It
ended up leaving winpcap-nmap-4.02.exe (that's the install file) in
my ncap directory, but I downloaded it from the winpcap site anyhow
before re-installing.
