Dsniff uses icmp default gateway redirects (the ICMP message that tells hosts that a differnt router has a better path to the destination network). This will automatically make the user's PC redirect all traffic to your PC dynamically (the client never knows about it), because he thinks you are a router and that you'd be a better default gateway. You just have to have a multihomed PC because you still need to forward the traffic to the destination, otherwise you'll get caught.
It's a pretty good hacking tool and has been ported from *nix to Windows for years. Makes switches just like hubs again. Use this with L0phtCrack and you can get NT PW's, etc..
