I use the Cain component of Cain & Abel constantly, but it will only run on a computer with WinPcap installed. I have the installer for this as it is included in the Cain & Abel download package. I have WinPcap installed on my laptop, but would like to run Cain on other computers without having to install WinPcap. When you attempt to run cain without WinPcap installed you get an error message along the lines of "Could not find packet.dll" and the program terminates. I would like to have packet.dll on the same USB drive I have Cain on, so that I can run it without any installation, thus making it a portable app, but need a script to tell Cain where packet.dll is located on my USB drive. that's what I need help with.

All I really need to know is what language I would need to write the script in; would it be in a batch file or something? Once I know how it should be written I'll attempt to do said writing with a friend, but any help offered would be greatly appreciated.

the Cain & Abel package can be downloaded from it's creator's site at http://www.oxid.it/.

I've found that this issue is actually over packet.dll from Cain, not from WinPcap, but would still need WinPcap for wireless functionality. I'm not sure where the Cain & Abel installer places packet.dll, it may be somewhere in C:\WINDOWS, assuming C: is the Hard Drive you installed Cain & Abel to.
