I've good experience with running windows in a qemu-kvm vm under Linux,
running wireshark to capture the usb under Linux.

This does require using a recent qemu + spice with usbredir. Full disclosure:
I'm the developer of the spice/qemu usbredir code. But I also regularly
reverse-engineer USB devices to write Linux drivers, and lately I've been
using a windows-vm under qemu/kvm + spice-usbredir exclusively for this.

The best distro to give this a try is Fedora 17, as that has all the necessary
qemu and spice bits out of the box.

Hans
