It's probably because there is a TDI or NDIS driver installed as a
shim between the network driver and the OS being used to filter
traffic. Turning the service off probably just stops the driver from
forwarding traffic. It's been a while since I worked on drivers but
there should be some manual ways to get around this depending on how
much the AV is watching for modifications. One easy thing you could
try is stop the services like you did then go to device manager then
in the view menu select show hidden devices. There should be a new
list of non-plug and play drivers. You can try to figure out which
ones are linked to the AV by name then confirm it by opening up the
driver properties then click on the drivers tab and the driver
details button. Once you have confirmed it you can stop the driver.
See if that works. If not then you might need to look at some of the
tools published by the driver development community that help in
disabling and unloading drivers.
Thanks Ali, I'll give this a try.
