Hi Peter,

Ethereal has network name resolution switched on by default. There was a
known bug in the ADNS library shipped with Ethereal 0.10.3. You can replace
the ADNS library (adns_dll.dll) with the latest version that you can
download from the following URL:

http://download.jgaa.com/ftp/pub/gnu/adns/adns-1.0-win32-03.zip

You can also decide to switch off network name resolution. This can be done
by going to the Edit > Preferences > Name Resolution.
 
Regards,

Olivier

0.10.3 - Windows XP on DELL D600
 
On certain networks Ethereal once capture finishes (starts parsing packets)
Ethereal hangs maxing out CPU.
 
Ethereal works perfectly on other networks.
 
Is it some decode problem?
