Hi. Are you using the latest version of WinPcap (3.1beta)? Can you please have a look at the memory usage of your system on the Task Manager, in particular the items "Paged" and "NonPaged" in the kernel memory part of the mem usage?
A user reported a similar problem, and it was actually due to a service leaking some resources. The consequence was that WinPcap was not able to allocate the appropriate resources for its work.
