That's a WinPcap problem of some sort, not an Ethereal problem (as you
note, WinDump has the same problem). As such, you should check the
WinPcap FAQ:
http://netgroup-serv.polito.it/winpcap/misc/faq.htm
and, if that doesn't help, ask the WinPcap people about it:
winpcap@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I don't know what the cause of that problem would be.
