I am running XP and have installed WinPcap 3.0 and Ethereal 10.4.  I am
unable to capture, evidently because of the error message:  "Can't get list
of interfaces:  PacketGetAdapterNames:  Not enough storage is available to
process this command."  The attached screen snap-shot shows this error.
What can I do to get Ethereal to begin capturing?
