Ethereal 0.9.0

I installed the 0.9.0 windows package and winpcap and was attempting to take
a network capture for a script with the following command:

C:\Progra~1\Ethereal\tethereal -afilesize:500 -b2 -c65535 -Fnetmon2 -wc:\tes
t.cap

I can't seem to get the ring buffer feature to work. I played with all the
settings and the file just keeps growing beyond the size I set. Is there a
bug or am I doing something wrong? The capture seems ok to me though.
