I've run into a problem where certain 802.11 traffic, when selected
for display, locked Ethereal hard, often times taking the window
manager with it and forcing a hard restart.   I extracted one frame
with editcap and have attached it.  I have confirmed that it locks
up ethereal and tethereal v0.8.18 on RH Linux and ethereal 0.8.18
under Win2K.  With the full capture, all other frames from other
sources can be viewed with no problem, it's when you select one
from this host that it heaves.  Any ideas?
