To make those messages go away:

    do *NOT* close the DOS window in which those errors pop up;

    make sure the "Save window size" preference is set in the "User
Interface" preferences in the "Edit -> Preferences" window;

    quit Ethereal;

    if a message shows up in the DOS window telling you to type Return
or Enter, do so.

The error on startup has nothing to do with the wireless capture issues.
