Wireshark-bugs: [Wireshark-bugs] Autoscroll turns off in Wireshark 1.6.5 when window is maximize

When the wireshark window is maximized, selecting "autoscroll" from the "Capture option" menu window and running the capture process, the autoscroll is immediately lost and is no longer selected in the "Capture option" menu.
When the window is unmaximized, everything works properly.

Autoscroll is also selected by default in the Edit/Preferences submenu.
