cool, I'll check the nic status before sending if I ever want to maximize throughput. But I'll probably rewrite it in C at that point too.

"Check the NIC status"? What network API are you using? Even if you're injecting with libpcap, you can still just select() on the device handle.

Just use Winpcap instead of wasting time reinventing this wheel.
