Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] Wireshark capture of MS Loopback adapter on Windows 2000

Hello,
  I followed the Wireshark wiki on capturing packets on Windows XP MS LoopBack Adaptor (not the local 127.0.0.1) and it works. But I'm having a hard time getting the it to work on windows 2000 with the LoopBack Adaptor.
Is this a known Win2000 MS loopback driver issue or that my PC has issues? According to the wiki http://wiki.wireshark.org/CaptureSetup/Loopback this should work.....
Has anyone been able to get IP/ARP/UDP packets captured from Windows 2000 MS LoopBack Adaptor?

Thanks
