This is probably a WinPcap problem; see, for example:

    http://www.winpcap.org/misc/faq.htm#Q-10

Note that the FAQ in question says

    Most of the times, the problem is caused by non-standard interactions
between the firewall and the network stack of the OS, so there not a lot to do
on our side; the suggested remedy consists in uninstalling the firewall. 
    Note: *uninstalling*, and not *disabling*, because some firewalls (like
ZoneAlarm) keep having strange behaviors even when they are disabled.

Try contacting the WinPcap developers:

    http://www.winpcap.org/bugs.htm

Give them all the details, including the information about Symantec Endpoint
Protection.
