Wireshark: A free TCP/IP protocol sniffer formerly known as Ethereal. It has support for hundreds of protocols that piggyback on TCP/IP, formatting the messages it captures. By defaut it captures all traffic going through your ethernet card, not just TCP/IP. Its main limitation is it cannot monitor purely local traffic. It must be going to some other machine.
