James:

I have seen this on my W2K machine when one has a an additional shim or
a component tied to a network adapter such as CheckPoint SecuRemote
(client VPN for windows). What I do is to uncheck the component for
Ethereal usage (don't have to reboot with the w2k OS) and the
duplication of packets no longer occurs.
