When running a capture of traffic to
http://www.mfcglobal.com/globalintelligence on Internet Explorer 6, Wireshark
(1.2.5 and 1.2.7) goes BSOD.  I was able to get a full capture when using
Firefox.

Steps to reproduce:
1. In Wireshark:
a) Click on "Interface List"
b) Click on "Start" next to interface in question.
2. Startup IE6.
3. Browse to www.mfcglobal.com/globalintelligence
4. The SWF file attempts to download/load.
5. BSOD.

I've reproduced it with both WS 1.2.5 and WS 1.2.7.
