How to capture packets and view them

[bound4h]

I have a question. If I am on my own network, is there a program in BT or somewhere where I could "monitor" (i.e. see the information) being passed from other clients on the LAN to and from my router?

For example, if my comp and another comp are both on my LAN, could I monitor or view the other comps activity by using some sort of program?

If so, which one does it best?

Why post the same question twice?

Yes, we'll agree to give up on this thread and concentrate on the other.
