--
The GTK build doesn't use UDP in the remote interface options as default for
data transfer since version 1.4.x
I think, the QT build should also uncheck the flag as default, as the UDP
option is handled like an active mode in WinPCAP, which may force users to
disable/configure their firewall.
Explenation: UDP mode opens a UDP socket on the machine with Wireshark which
waits for a socket connect, which can be seen in the WinPCAP sources
(pcap-remote.c):
if ( (active) || (fp->rmt_flags & PCAP_OPENFLAG_DATATX_UDP) )
