The applet must detect if the pcap library (libpcap, winpcap) is actually installed and available in the operating system.

Usage of library wrappers for Java like:
- http://jnetpcap.com/
- http://www.savarese.org/software/rocksaw/index.html
should be evaluated.

If the pcap library is installed, as the applet is signed will run with full privileges and we can actively sniff the network traffic from the malicious applet.
