I.e., the capture window doesn't appear at all?

The dial-up adapter works with WinPcap 3.0? That's somewhat surprising,
as 3.0 explicitly removed support for PPP links.

So if you have WinPcap 3.0 installed, and *leave* it installed,
un-install Ethereal 0.10.1, install Ethereal 0.10.0, and run it without
"Update list of packets in real time", it can capture on your LAN
adapter, but if you then un-install Ethereal 0.10.0 (and leave WinPcap
3.0 alone), install Ethereal 0.10.1, and run it without "Update list of
packets in real time", it gives an error when you try to capture on your
LAN adapter?
