...as, in fact, the documentation on installing the WinPcap package, at

	http://netgroup-serv.polito.it/winpcap/install/help/NT.htm

says, in step 4.

Perhaps it isn't as point-and-click as one might like, but I don't know
if there's a way to make installing a network protocol driver downloaded
from an Internet site, rather than one supplied with a floppy disk that
comes with a peripheral, just point-and-click.  If not, users may just
have to get used to having to type something in the "Insert Disk" dialog
box if they want to install the packet driver.
