Title: Admin Rights query

Hi,

I wonder if someone out there can help me please…

I'm trying to package up Ethereal 0.010.00 and although it packaged up without any issues I'm trying to ascertain why the application needs admin rights in order for the capture NIC card info to appear in the Interface box.

We have quite a locked down build (XP SP2)  and I need to try and see if I can permission the registry with users rights rather than leave it where it can only install with admin rights.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Regards,
