I started the Packetcaptureing on an Intel 82579LM Gigabit adapter and wanted
to move the Mainwindow to my 2nd monitor. After a short time the window can't
be dragged anymore, Windows also doesn't respond to any mouseclick. The
livescrolling of the sniffed packets also stops.

After pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del and then Esc the Mouseclick works again and the
livescroll also.

This behavior is reproducible on 2 different machines:
1st WinXP SP3, Core2Quad, NVidia GFX
2nd Win7 32bit SP1, Core i7, Intel HD3000 (onboard)

Scenario:
Start Wireshark
Open the list of capture interfaces
Select the Interface and open the Options
Uncheck all boxes in "Name Resolution"
Press Start
Move the Window
