I find this app a bit ironic but for the network admins out there, protect user passwords with Airscanner Mobile Sniffer. Windows Mobile 2003SE and Windows Mobile 5.0 supported!
Sniff passwords from your Pocket PC
As a network administrator, you want to protect your users' confidential data. What better way to do this than to stroll down the hall with Airscanner(TM) Mobile Sniffer hidden in your pocket? Thanks to our support for Ethereal packet capture format, grabbing your user's passwords out of the airwaves is as easy as watching a movie! Your users unintentionally send their passwords through the air in clear text, so it is better that you discover this first before a malicious drive-by hacker does it for you. Airscanner(TM) Mobile Sniffer also works in promiscuous mode, so you can also discover unauthorized users who may be associating with one of your access points.
Features
- Airscanner(TM) Mobile Sniffer gives you the power to: - Sniff wireless packets in promiscuous mode - Decode UDP, TCP, Ethernet, DNS, and NetBios packets - Conduct network analysis on an entire WLAN segment - Customize filters for source and/or destination IP Address, UDP Port, TCP Port, or MAC - View real-time packet statistics - Save results of capture sessions - Export data to Ethereal format for further analysis on a desktop PC
I am curious, why do you say it is strange? I would imagine it is very popular as they brought it back on demand from the folks at their forums. I guess there are those who find it useful. I have tried it and it is very nice. I have been impressed with it. My 2 cents.

I personally believe that it's a great tool, but if it got into the wrong hands... ouch. But as they always say, they best way to protect your stuff is to attempt to break it.

Hi hezahonker...
I echo Tim's statement as well. But if you have other impressions on the product, please let us know...thanks!
No I have very good impressions of this software. It just sounded that you or the other above me where not thrilled with this software. Perhaps I misunderstood. I too love this very impressive sniffer. Yes, in the wrong hands it is not good, but hopefully network folks are using this to protect themselves.
