Answer 1

1. Unzip the WinPcap Developer pack so that you have C:\WpdPack\Include and C:\WpdPack\Lib

2. Unzip the pypcap source so that you have C:\pypcap-1.1.4\setup.py

3. Install the Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7

4. Start the relevant cmd prompt for your Python27 bitness from:
   Start -> Programs -> Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler Package for Python 2.7

5. Install/build pypcap from that cmd prompt with:

    set INCLUDE=%INCLUDE%;c:\WpdPack\Include
    set LIB=%LIB%;c:\WpdPack\Lib
    pushd C:\pypcap-1.1.4
    python setup.py install
