Correction - see this:

The project is at alpha stage but may work for you.
Warning: The original Anton Ragers WEPCrack would not work on the
Windows platform with Perl installed.
You can also try to port the old good Tim Newsham's WEP Tools to Windows
(shouldn't be difficult, have a look at the source) to run a dictionary
or brute force attack, even though such attack is not very likely to
succeed (especially against a 104 bit key) and takes time & large data
pcap format dumps.

| Just my $0.02,
You can easily inject encrypted traffic into the target WLAN for
additional traffic generation using Linux (WEPWedgie), BSD (Wnet reinj)
or OS X (reinjection option in Kismac) tools. However, you can't
accelerate WEP cracking by traffic injection using any Windows software
(yet).
If reliable connection-oriented (e.g. TCP) or routing protocols are used
on the target WLAN, jamming the channel and causing frequent
deauthentications (e.g. with FakeAP and Void11 combined) somewhat
accelerates WEP cracking by increasing the amount of retransmits, thus
generating additional traffic. Again, you can't do it from Windows yet.
Check out our site (www.wi-foo.com) for all necessary drivers and tools.
Just my $0.02++ :)
Andrew.
