I am trying to implement some UDP based network communication protocol.
It's error prone a a network sniffer will greatly help me understand wha't
going on (sometimes I don't get any messages...)

I found this one which (unfortunately) works only on XP:
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/IP/CSNetworkSniffer.aspx

Thanks to it I was able to make my project go as far as receiving
meaningfull server answer on XP.
However on Vista the server doesn't seems to answer me :(
(UDP being disconnected it's hard to know what's going on...)

Anyway, any tips on how to do packet sniffing on Vista???

Wireshark should run fine, as long as you run it with elevated privileges.
