Review by:
4.0/5

SocketSniff is a software solution that was built specifically to aid individuals in monitoring the WinSock (Windows Sockets) activity of a selected process and create an HTML report.

The installation process is not a prerequisite, as this product is portable. As a result, the Windows registry is not going to be changed in any way, unless you approve of it.

By placing the program files to a USB thumb drive or another similar device, you make it possible to run SocketSniff on any computer you come across by simply clicking the EXE.

This program can detect all the processes currently running on your computer, as well as display them in a separate window, along with ID, name and path.

After selecting the process that interests you, WinSock activity is going to be brought up in the main window, yet you should also know it is possible to stop the monitoring at any point. Information including socket, index, type, local address and port, remote address and port, and received calls.

Aside from that, you should know it is possible to choose the types of sockets you want to use (e.g. TCP, UDP etc.), and change the display mode from automatic, to ASCII or HEX dump.

Last but not least, a search function is put at your disposal, you can easily copy information to the Clipboard, refresh the entire list with just a click of the button and generate HTML reports with items of your choosing.

To conclude, SocketSniff may be a pretty simple piece of software, yet it is efficient and suitable to all types of users, including those less experienced. Jobs are going to be completed in a timely manner and the computer’s performance is not going to be burdened at all.
