Hi Jocelyn,

I don't know if you use my ppm repository [1] for installation, but 
if you do, it is a little outdated. How to install my ppms is 
described here [2]. In my repository, you can find:

Net::Pcap 0.14
Net::Packet 3.25
Net::Libdnet 0.01
Net::Write 1.00

And many others.

As you said, Net::Packet is pure Perl, it should work under Windows
with no problem.

Regarding the endianess problem, the latest version of Net::Packet 
should work on all systems. Latest is 3.26 [3].
