I have a packet (attached) with WinPcap arrival time of 1093430201 seconds.
This is of course seconds since UTC Time January 1st, 1970 00:00:00 so some
calculation is needed:
1093430201 seconds = 12655 days + 10 hours + 36 minutes + 41 seconds.
January 1st, 1970 00:00:00 (UTC Time) + 12655 days + 10 hours + 36 minutes + 41
seconds = August 25th, 2004 10:36:41 (UTC Time).

When converting from August 25th, 2004 10:36:41 (UTC Time) to Local Time
(Israel) using Microsoft .NET4.0, I'm getting August 25th, 2004 12:36:41 (Local
Time).

However, Wireshark displays the timestamp as:
Arrival Time: Aug 25, 2004 13:36:41.000000000

This doesn't happen for every packet timestamp, but I could find timestamps
that were bad in every year but 2010.

I believe this is a bug in Wireshark GUI.
