Title: Hex Dump w/ multiple packets in "Follow TCP Stream" window

Greetings.

Don't know if this has been reported or not... I'm using Ethereal 0.9.6 on Windows 2000 server. If I do a "Follow TCP Stream" for a stream with two packets, and then click the "Hex Dump" button, I see the first packet dumped just fine, but the second packet's dump skips the first 76 columns, and as such it wraps around to the next line on my 1024x768 screen. Looks something like the following (and is a tad bit tough to read...):


00000000  XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX  abcdefgh
00000010  XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX  abcdefgh

                                              00000000 X
X XX XX XX XX XX XX XX  abcdefgh
                                              00000010 X
X XX XX XX XX XX XX XX  abcdefgh
