Those packets are not tcp retransmissions so they shouldnt be displayed as
tcp retransmissions.these packets are duplicated packets, either duplicated by
a broken device or , most likely, due to bad interaction between WinPCap and
somethiung like black ice.While these packets should definitely not be
displayed as retransmissions, they shouldnt really be displayed as
out-of-order either butsince they are neither and this is just a broken
capture/stack and it would be very difficult to accurately detect
broken-stack/device-causing-packet-duplication it is not really worth
trying to detect this special case.
