Hi there!
Im been googling all the day, but i can't find a clue about how to do what i
need...
So, I need to write a win32 application that "trace" or "log" or "capture"
all outgoing HTTP traffic to a certain domain, putting it into a variable
and parse it for a certain string... simple as it sounds, im going nuts with
this!

It's look like i need Winpcap or something like that, but i have no idea how
to "hook" to the network adapter and start monitoring...

Thanks in advance.
Mariano.-

You said "Win32" application. Isn't Winpcap open source? Or maybe
you're better off using a HTTP proxy for this?

Thanks for your answer Joerg.
Yes, i need a win32 application.
Winpcap is open source.
I know that a proxy will solve and do the capture, but i need to implement
this solution in 10 machines.

It is posible to do the trace, i see a lot on products on the web that do
it.

Any advice?
Thanks.-
 
Here the description of a product that do exactly ehat im lookig for:

HttpTracer
View web traffic between browser and any Internet server. HttpTracer is a
windows program that runs as a proxy server on your desktop, catching and
displaying all textual commands and data sent and recieved by a web browser.

I don't see any connection between deployment requirements and the need
for custom development ;-)

Fiddler should cut it: http://www.fiddlertool.com
