   Viva a todos,

   I have been using Ethereal in Windows for almost two years now, without any major issues. Currently I'm running:

      ethereal 0.9.9, with GTK+ 1.3.0, with GLib 1.3.2, with libpcap (version unknown), with libz 1.1.4, with Net-SNMP 5.0.6

   Recently I started using a different PC and since then, every time I do a trace, all the frames that are sent from my system show up in triplicate:

  1   0.000000  10.10.10.44  10.10.10.59   ICMP Echo (ping) request

   The reply only shows up once:

  4   0.000505  10.10.10.59  10.10.10.44   ICMP Echo (ping) reply

   Curiously, if a trace is taken also with Ethereal at the other end, one will see just one ping request but two replies show as being sent back:

  1   0.000000  10.10.10.44  10.10.10.59   ICMP Echo (ping) request

   The only think I can relate to this is that my PC has three different network Interfaces. And the other PC has two networking interfaces. But all repeated frames show up with the same MAC address but at different timestamps.

   Is there a bug for this issue? If so, is there a workaround for it?

   Thanks in advance for your help.
