Protocol Analyzers

IE HTTP Analyzer is an add-in for Internet Explorer, that allows you to capture HTTP/HTTPS traffic in real-time. It displays a wide range of information, including Header, Content, Cookies, Query Strings, Post data, redirection URLs and more. It also provides cache information and session clearing, as well as HTTP status code information and several filtering options. A useful developer tool for performance analysis, debugging and diagnostics. IE HTTP Analyzer integrates into the lower part of your IE browser window and can be opened/closed from the IE toolbar.

CommView is a program for monitoring network activity capable of capturing and analyzing packets on any Ethernet network. It gathers information about data flowing on a LAN and decodes the analyzed data. With CommView you can see the list of network connections, vital IP statistics, and examine individual packets. IP packets are decoded down to the lowest layer with full analysis of the main IP protocols: TCP, UDP, and ICMP. Full access to raw data is also provided. Captured packets can be saved to log files for future analysis. A flexible system of filters makes it possible to drop packets you don t need or capture only those packets that you wish to capture. CommView is a helpful tool for LAN administrators, security professionals, network programmers, or anyone who wants to have a full picture of the traffic going through one s PC or LAN segment.

Atelier Web Ports Traffic Analyzer is a network traffic sniffer and logger that allows you to monitor all internet and network traffic on your PC and view the actual content of the packets, showing you exactly what was transmitted and to where. This includes all traffic initiated by software products, web sites etc. The capability to audit what flows in and out of every piece of software is critical for security aware users. Atelier Web Ports Traffic Analyzer providesReal-time mapping of ports to processes (applications and services) and shows the history since boot time of every TCP, UDP or RAW port opened through Winsock. Optionally, AWPTA can also log (up to 500mb) all traffic since the last boot to a file.

Colasoft Capsa Network Analyzer is a TCP/IP Network Sniffer and Analyzer that offers real time monitoring and data analyzing of network traffic. In addition to Packet Analysis, Capsa also offers Email Analysis, Web Analysis and Transaction Analysis modules, which allow you to quickly view email traffic (by subject and sender), we sites that were visited and more. Other features include custom filtering options, data export, customizable interface and more.

EtherDetect Packet Sniffer is an easy to use packet sniffer and network protocol analyzer. It captures and groups all network traffic and allows you to view real-time details for each packet, as well as the content. You can also set up filters based on IP address and port and save the captured traffic to file for later review. The built-in viewer supports syntax highlighting for HTML, ASP and XML. EtherDetect Packet Sniffer uses WinPCAP (included).

EffeTech HTTP Sniffer is a HTTP packet sniffer, protocol analyzer that is specialized for web traffic. It can rebuild the HTTP sessions, and reassemble files sent through HTTP protocol (does not support HTTP compressed pages). The main window displays a list of all logged connections, as well as detailed information for the request and response headers; this allows for a quick overview without too much detail. When you double-click a specific connection, you can view in depth information about the connection, including raw packet data, TCP details and package content.

Give Me Too is a simple network sniffer, that logs all TCP/IP traffic and saves transferred files to your disk. It can capture email messages, uploaded files, visited web pages and more. In addition, it offers various filter options that allow you to limit the captured data to the stuff that you are interested in. While the program does capture web pages, it does not allow you to view them as actual pages, but only the bits and pieces (images, html etc.), which limits the use for visual investigation. Unlike most other sniffers in this price class, it does not provide any detailed inspection of packet data, nor statistics or other advanced features.

NetResident is a network traffic monitor that captures, stores and analyzes all packet traffic from selected protocols. It reconstructs each event and displays a preview of the web page, email message or other communication that took place, including transmitted (unencrypted) passwords. NetResident supports standard HTTP, FTP and Mail protocols, as well as special protocols via plug-ins (ICQ, MSN, News). The program is easy to use and organizes the logged data by date, machine and protocol, and also offers several basic filters to exclude stations, sites or file types from logging. NetResident runs as a local service.

URL Helper is a packet sniffer, that has been designed to decode download links for streaming audio and video, that are hidden behind JavaScript or ActiveX scripts. You can limit the list of file extensions to be captured and also color code them for easy reference.

BillSniff is a network protocol analyzer (sniffer) that provides detailed information about current traffic, as well as overall protocol statistics and more. It supports various protocols including ip4, TCP, UDP, IEEE 802.2 frame, Ethernet II frame, NetBios, IPX and others. In addition to real-time monitoring it includes a extensive array of filter options that allow you to limit capture based on IP, Port, Protocol, MAC address, packet size and other criteria, as well as graphical statistics for network layers. You can also use BillSniff to send packets and script custom protocols.

HTTP Analyzer enables you to capture HTTP/HTTPS traffic in real-time, allowing you to analyze, debug and diagnoze web application traffic. The program supports all application that support WININET or Mozila NSS API, including Internet Explorer, Firefox, Outlook, Outlook Express etc. It can trace Header, Content, Cookies, Query Strings, Post data, Request and Response Stream, redirection URLs and other information and comes with a requirs builder to generate custom HTTP/HTTPs requests. Other features include Internet Explorer integration, request filtering, cache and cookie clearing, log export to XML and more.

Sniff - O - Matic is a simple network protocol analyzer and packet sniffer with an easy to use and unsophisticated interface. It displays a tree view of the captured data, as well as a hex display of the raw capture. The program also includes filtering options to limit capture based on IP address, protocol or data. Other features include a statistical chart display and a simple search option. Sniff - O - Matic works as advertised, but we would have expected more features from a commercial packet analyzer.
