I had a bit of trouble getting WC3Banlist (mainly due to its dependency on WinPcap) on Windows 7
This is working on Windows 7 RC1, with User Acount Control (UAC) on (set to Default)
I did quite a few things when troubleshooting so it’s hard to replicate the exact steps, but here’s some instructions on how I have it set up now:
Install WinPcap
- Download WinPcap 4.1
- Right click the downloaded installer exe and choose Properties
- Go to the Compatibility tab
- In Compatibility mode, Tick “Run this program in compatibility mode for:” and choose Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) from the drop-down
- Tick “Run this program as an administrator” in Privilege Level
- Hit OK
- Run the exe and go through the normal installation
Install WC3Banlist
- Download WC3Banlist
- Right click the installation file and choose Run as administrator
- Untick “Install WinPcap 3.1 (required)” when you get to the “Select additional tasks” step and proceed as normal
Run Wc3Banlist
- Browse to where you installed banlist and open up file properties for wc3banlist.exe
- Go to the Compatibility tab and tick Run as an administrator
- Click OK
- Run wc3banlist.exe
Verify
- Go to the Preferences tab in Wc3Banlist
- Select Network in the list on the left navigation pane
- Ensure your network card(s) are listed in the drop-down
- You can click Diagnostics to verify banlist can receive TCP packets
Troubleshooting
If this still isn’t working, I would recommend turning off UAC and trying again.
- To turn off UAC, open the Control Panel (Start > Control Panel)
- Click System and Security
- Under Action Center, click Change User Account Control settings
- Drag the slider down to Never Notify
- Click OK
- You have to restart for this to take effect

ehh i got winPcap installed but but im unable to detect my NIC:S
man, this worked in my win7! This is very precise and thanks for helping out!
I did everything with UAC disabled (it didn’t work out while it was enabled) but now when I come to the banlist’s NIC Detector, none of them becomes green when I login to Battle.net and do some chatting as the info bar says. The detector can’t detect the required NIC from the list. Any ideas?
Make sure your network thingy is on the list in the first place. And download the wincap from here
http://www.winpcap.org/install/default.htm
its a updated version posted by David.
And reinstall whatever you need. hope it helps
YES!!! You are the best! Thanks!
