Hi,
	When I attempt to read in a 1.2 GB libpcap capture file, my
computer bogs down while loading the file. Eventually it generates a
message indicating it ran out of virtual memory.
	I need a way to either load this file, so I can search and
browse it, or I need a way to generate an ascii text file from this
capture file (I realize this would be a very large file).
	Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

File was generated using Windump (http://windump.polito.it)
Running latest release of Ethereal (0.10.3) under Windows XP
I have resolution options off (DNS, MAC, Transport, etc)
Computer is 700mhz/512 RAM
								Thanks!!
