TCPdump has a brother called Windump which runs on Windows systems or you can simply move the dump to a *nix system. However, I didn't go back thru the tread to check how he got the dump.

To "translate" a packet you just need the correct RFC ( or any document which shows the packet's layout) a little knowledge of the protocols and how to convert hex into dec. and bin. numbers. I use the rfcs, but you can get a book called TCP/IP illustrated which can help you in learning how to do packet analysis. You might also want to pick up another freebie called Ethereal, which is a GUI network sniffer that runs on Linux and Windows.
