Packet Sniffer

Can anyone recommend a packet sniffer for me to play around with?
Preferably a cheap or free one, that's easy to use. Something for Windows would be nice, easy, and make my life easier, but I'll take a shot at a Linux one also.
I'm looking to get into my LANs guts a bit.
Thanks for your time.
 
Tcpdump and snort are essential tools of the trade. They work on just about every type of *NIX you can name. Be sure to use tcpdump 3.6 and not the outdated version that comes with Redhat.

windump for Windows machines. But ethereal will do everything tcpdump does, and more. I use tcpdump atleast weekly, its a great tool, but ethereal makes it easier 🙂
 
WindowsXP includes the command line utility netcap to do a capture,
you'll still need ethereal to view the trace
