Hi

I am trying to use Ethreal in a computer with windows NT. 4.0, but it hangs when I start a capture.
I setup a filter for IP and I press start; in that moment a second window appears showing the packet
count, inmeditately, the main window stops responding the OS.  The counters increase for a while and
after less than one minute, this second window of Ethreal also hangs.  I have to open the program
manager of win-NT to be able to close both windows.

Do you know why does it happen?  How could I solve it?

Thanks in advance
