I forgot to write down the message from the BSOD screen, but it said "(tcpip.sys)" after. If I get the error again, I will update this topic.

If you had chosen the TDI driver to install, try reinstalling the latest version of NetWorx at which time choose the WFP driver to install and reboot. If you had chosen the WFP driver, try installing TDI instead and reboot.
If still no joy and you need to exclude local traffic, it's possible to use a third party driver:
- Backup your usage and uninstall NetWorx.
- Download and install WinPCap.
- Install latest NetWorx again leaving the "LAN Traffic Filtering Driver" option unticked.
- When NetWorx starts, you should be able to choose one of your adapters prefixed with "Ignore LAN Traffic" from the drop-down list in the NetWorx settings.
In this case NetWorx will be using the WinPCap driver, rather its own custom driver and you shouldn't have any stability issues again.

According to the symptoms, it may be the case if the game takes up a lot of RAM.

So sooner or later this bug should get fixed (it probably happens with other software too, not this game alone).
