Try Ethereal. With this software you can look at every byte which passes you networkcard in promiscous mode. You can filter for every item a TCP packet has. You also can "follow TCP stream" to look into the payload. Unfortunately not in realtime, but it's ok to do a lot of troubleshooting in you network.
