Hi All,

Recently I had reformatted my system and install the XP again. Earlier
ethereal was running fine on my machine with XP.

But now when I go for capturing the packet though ethereal it crashes after
I stop capturing. When I tried with option 'update list of packets in
real-time', it crashed after capturing 20-25 packets and capture info window
still showing that ethereal is capturing the packets. All the configuration
setting is default.

I am totally confused and lost what might be the problem. Does anyone of you
also encountered the same problem.

I am using ethereal ver 0.10.6 and WinPcap ver 3.0

 

Best Regards

Vijay Mishra
