ipTicker

Introduction

News - What's fixed
11/Sep/2006 - New excludes do not work in v2.0.
Fixed in v2.1

I could not capture the dump into a file.
Added in v1.10

When I start ipTicker I get this error:
Socket Error - socket() = 10013
ipTicker uses raw sockets and on Windows NT/Windows 2000, raw socket support requires administrative privileges. Users running Winsock applications that make use of raw sockets must have administrative privileges on the computer, otherwise raw socket calls fail with an error code of WSAEACCESS (10013). The other reason could be due to the fact that you are blocking raw sockets in your system. E.g. If you have GRC's Socket Lock running, disabling that will solve the problem.

Sometimes I saw a "This program has been tampered" error box.
Fixed in v1.9g

ipTicker runs to 100% CPU.
This was introduced in v1.9d. Fixed in v1.9f

I cannot see the country
Please download v1.9.

Where is the port listener?
This feature was removed in v1.8b because it was not useful.

I cannot detect what has changed easily.
Fixed in v1.8

I kept getting an error 10040
This was a buffer size problem. Fixed in v1.4

ipTicker is not showing any results.
If you are blocking raw sockets, please unblock it as ipTicker depends on raw sockets to work
