When selecting continious file save option (use multiple files) in options
dialog, will get error "The file "d:\tmp\netcap\test_00002_20070613201634.pcap"
doesn't exist."

I called the file d:\tmp\netcap\test.pcap. 
"Next file every" selected at 1 megabytes. 
"Next file every" minutes not selected.
"Ring buffer with" selected with 3 files.
"Stop capture after" not selected.
All selected in "Display Options".
Nothing selected in "Stop Capture".

I tested this feature while capturing 10Kbytes per second. Everything seems to
work. When I copied a 20Mbyte file onto the computer, when starting the forth
file I received the above message.

This is what was in the directory after the failure:
06/13/07  08:16 PM         1,049,778 test_00001_20070613201614.pcap
06/13/07  08:16 PM         1,049,198 test_00021_20070613201637.pcap
06/13/07  08:16 PM         1,048,864 test_00022_20070613201637.pcap
06/13/07  08:16 PM           581,884 test_00023_20070613201637.pcap

I would really like to leave Wireshark running continiously, but I am getting
this error.
