DNSQuerySniffer v1.85

A network sniffer utility that shows the DNS queries sent on your system.

For every DNS query, the following information is displayed: Host Name, Port Number, Query ID, Request Type (A, AAAA, NS, MX, and so on), Request Time, Response Time, Duration, Response Code, Number of records, and the content of the returned DNS records.
You can easily export the DNS queries information to csv/tab-delimited/xml/html file, or copy the DNS queries to the clipboard, and then paste them into Excel or other spreadsheet application.

System Requirements

This utility works on any version of Windows, starting from Windows 2000, and up to Windows 10. Both 32-bit and 64-bit systems are supported.
On some systems, capturing packets with the 'Raw Sockets' method may not work properly, and thus you'll need to install the WinPcap capture driver or the Network Monitor driver.
Even if the 'Raw Sockets' method works properly on your system, it's recommended to install the WinPcap capture driver or Microsoft Network Monitor driver (version 3.4 or later) in order to get more accurate date/time information ('Request Time', 'Response Time', and 'Duration' columns)
In order to use the Network Monitor driver on 64-bit systems, you have to download the x64 version of DNSQuerySniffer.


Changes:
Version 1.85

Added option to change the sorting column from the menu (View -> Sort By). Like the column header click sorting, if you click again the same sorting menu item, it'll switch between ascending and descending order. Also, if you hold down the shift key while choosing the sort menu item, you'll get a secondary sorting.
Updated to work properly in high DPI mode.

Start Using DNSQuerySniffer
Except of a capture driver that you may need to install, DNSQuerySniffer doesn't require any installation process or additional dll files. In order to start using it, simply run the executable file - DNSQuerySniffer.exe
After running DNSQuerySniffer in the first time, the 'Capture Options' window appears on the screen, and you're requested to choose the capture method and the desired network adapter. In the next time that you use DNSQuerySniffer, it'll automatically start capturing packets with the capture method and the network adapter that you previously selected. You can always change the 'Capture Options' again by pressing F9.

After choosing the capture method and network adapter, DNSQuerySniffer starts the displays the detail of every DNS query sent on your system.
You can press F6 to stop the DNS capture, F5 to start it again, or Ctrl+X to clear the current DNS queries list.

You can select one or more DNS query lines, and then use the 'Save Selected Items' option to export them into csv/tab-delimited/xml/html file. You can also copy the selected DNS queries to the clipboard (Ctrl+C) and then paste them (Ctrl+V) into Excel or other spreedsheet application.

DNSQuerySniffer allows you to view country/city information for every IP address found in the A records of the DNS response ('IP Country' column). In order to activate this feature, you have to download one of the following external files, and put the file in the same folder of DNSQuerySniffer.exe:

http://software77.net/geo-ip/: Download the IPv4 CSV file, extract it from the zip/gz file, and put it in the same folder of DNSQuerySniffer.exe as IpToCountry.csv
GeoLite City database: Download the GeoLite City in Binary / gzip (GeoLiteCity.dat.gz) and put it in the same folder of DNSQuerySniffer.exe
If you want to get faster loading process, extract the GeoLiteCity.dat from the GeoLiteCity.dat.gz and put it in the same folder of DNSQuerySniffer.exe

Integration with IPNetInfo utility
If you want to get more information about the IP address displayed in the DNS A record, you can use the Integration with IPNetInfo utility in order to easily view the IP address information loaded directly from WHOIS servers:

Download and run the latest version of IPNetInfo utility.
Select the desired items, and then choose "IPNetInfo - A Record" from the File menu (or simply click Ctrl+I).
IPNetInfo will retrieve the information about IP addresses of the selected items.

Command-Line Options
/cfg <Filename> Start DNSQuerySniffer with the specified configuration file. For example:
DNSQuerySniffer.exe /cfg "c:\config\dqs.cfg"
DNSQuerySniffer.exe /cfg "%AppData%\DNSQuerySniffer.cfg"

Translating DNSQuerySniffer to other languages
In order to translate DNSQuerySniffer to other language, follow the instructions below:

Run DNSQuerySniffer with /savelangfile parameter:
DNSQuerySniffer.exe /savelangfile
A file named DNSQuerySniffer_lng.ini will be created in the folder of DNSQuerySniffer utility.
Open the created language file in Notepad or in any other text editor.
Translate all string entries to the desired language. Optionally, you can also add your name and/or a link to your Web site. (TranslatorName and TranslatorURL values) If you add this information, it'll be used in the 'About' window.
After you finish the translation, Run DNSQuerySniffer, and all translated strings will be loaded from the language file.
If you want to run DNSQuerySniffer without the translation, simply rename the language file, or move it to another folder.
