Regarding the software exception or Blue screen of Death when exiting NT4
tethereal with the Ctrl-C sequence.

There is an entry in the Ruby archive
	'disable interrupt while executing accept() or select() to avoid
Ctrl-C causes
	"unknown software exception (0xc0000029)

from the perl archives for 2000 found problems with exception 0xc0000029
while trapping Ctrl-C

further descriptions of 0xc0000029 error 
STATUS_INVALID_UNWIND_TARGET
ERROR_MR_MID_NOT_FOUND

Most of the above means very little to me so could any WIN32 hacker see if
anything has changed in the Ctrl-C checking in tethereal 0.9.1

Thanks in advance
Nick Baldwin
