Either that, or perhaps Wireshark isn't recognizing a valid packet 
properly.  It's also possible that the entire packets aren't being 
captured (a snapshot length setting), but typically that limitation is 
recorded in the pcap file.

Can you send a small capture file (a packet or two) showing the 
malformed errors for us to take a look at?
