This is probably a WinPcap problem.  As per my mail, they might not 
support 64-bit Windows, even for 32-bit applications (WinPcap includes 
kernel code, as it has to include a driver to connect to NDIS to do 
packet capture); you could ask them on the winpcap-users mailing list:

although they've noted that it probably needs changes, and that they 
have no 64-bit machines on which to do development:
