Your *laptop* crashes (as in a Windows NT-style "STOP code" bug check/blue screen or a Mac OS X "You need to restart your computer" kernel panic screen or other UN*X kernel panic screen, bringing the entire machine down), or *Wireshark* crashes (leaving other applications on your machine still running)?
