Does someone know how to use Wincap(or other library) to see messages sent from and to Msn messenger, yahoo messenger, google talk?

Thanks

A: 

Wireshark is what you want for this.

Some info on on their wiki:

Google Talk is an implementation of Jabber, but I believe it is encrypted, so I'm not sure you will be able to read much of that.

I imagine he wants a programmatic/api solution.

I guess. But you are going to want to understand what you are capturing first, Wireshark is a good example of how to use WinPcap if nothing else :)

I now see that Winpcap cannot be used for commercial software unless i get the pro version. Any other solutions? TY.
