Hi,

Interesting. It sure seems like a GTK+ thing to me, getting confused over
the monitors connected. Did you run Wireshark with a multimonitor
setup before? And did you move certain windows to the secondary monitor?
Then maybe it's in the stored window positions and sizes found in Document
and Settings\You\Application Data\Wireshark\recent.

Thanx,
Jaap
