AirSnare freeware for detecting which neighbor is warsitting your wireless router

Does anyone know how to report this AirSnare coding error to developers?

AirSnare version 1.5.0
Error:
An error has occured while attempting to place the interface in monitor
mode.
Please take the time to report this to us.
Adapter #1)Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection
(Microsoft's Packet Scheduler)
Error Num: -2147220982
Error Des: Procedure PacketSetHwFilter failed. Error Code = 0

A friend suggested I download AirSnare to prove which of my neighbors is
connecting to my wireless Internet router so I downloaded AirSnare,
Ethereal, and WinCap as per instructions and installed onto winxp.

Do you know what this error is indicating?
How do we report an error to the AirSnare coding team?

If you have the proper protection on, why worry about it?

I'd start on their forum. The forum is pretty active and is hosted at

Better to employ security on the router to prevent the connection in the 1st
place.

Do you just lock the front door and assume that the lock is in working
order? Do you even look at the lock to check if it's functional? Are
you sure the "proper protection" is working, or perhaps your neighbor
has a spare key?

It's the same with any kind of network security, including wireless.
If you don't monitor the connection, you don't have any clue of what's
moving on your network or who's using it. For example, I've tracked
down a few virus infections to the neighbors using the allegedly
secure wireless connection, and accidentally spreading a virus to open
shares. I've also seen internet performance come to a grinding halt
when the local brat does his file sharing exercises. Without
monitoring, one would never know these things were happening, except
perhaps by the symptoms, which could be attributable to other causes.

Your neighbour wouldn't be connecting unless you were stupid enough not to
set your security correctly. Did you give them the WPA-PSK key? If so,
just change it and use your MAC access list then change your SSID and hide
it.

Not bothered looking as your friend should have advised you to set your
router correctly instead of messing about with software you (and him) don't
understand and don't even need. God knows how you would attempt to prove it
was a neighbour connecting to your system! Think about it a bit more. The
police would laugh at you as you can't even use a computer or router, the
neighbour would tell you to go away.

You contact them.
