I have been trying the latest pre-release of 0.10.7 and have found a problem with it running on Win98SE with WinPCAP 3.0.
 
When taking a small trace all works well, but taking one of about 406KB, Ethereal crashes. The problem happens when the capture is stopped and Ethereal starts to load it up to display it. Part way through this process it causes an invalid page fault in MSVCRT.DLL.
 
I have tried it with WinPcap 3.1 beta 3, but in common with all pre-releases this causes ethereal to stop responding when trying to open the capture dialog. However, I would have thought that is a problem with WinPcap, but it was OK with 0.10.4.
