Wireshark · Ethereal-dev: [Ethereal-dev] Ethereal Crash in nightly build of "ethereal-2004-01-26"

["Parul Singla" <parul@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,
   I installed ethereal from the nightly build of  "ethereal-2004-01-26". As
soon as I start capture of open a capture file, it crashes. I see a windows
message pop up "The instruction at 0x10006fc2" referenced memory at
0x0000000

I also tried disabling "disable the SMB and Q.931 protocol dissectors by
selecting Edit->Protocols..." but that too did not work.

Any insight/help is appreciated.

Guy, thanks for ur suggestion in earlier mail regarding installation
problems. It indeed worked.

Thanks
