Am using Ethereal ver 10.6 and WinPcap ver 3.0 on WinXP SP2 without having to add anything else to the computer. I am in the local administrator's group.

Subject: [Ethereal-users] Crash on Windows XP

Hi

 

I am trying to run Ethereal on Windows XP (Sp1), but it crashes as soon as it tries to display the results of packet capture.

 

It also crashes whenever I close the application. I have tried 10.6 and 10.4.

 

Here is the stack trace for the two crashes respectively:

 

1) After capture
