I was not able to resolve the issue of second level menu access from the
suggestions offered (see below). I could not see any suspicious behaviors,
but I should mention that I am not a Windows internal
expert.
I can run Ethereal on a Windows 98 system
without a problem, but still need to get it working on my development XP
system.
Any further suggestions would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanx!

------------------ If the libraries are a problem, then Process Explorer can show which
DLLs are being loaded and from what path.
http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/procexp.shtml
Alternatively, FileMon from the same company can show every file being
accessed, which would point out if there are any problems with
unexpected locations on the load path.
If the file shows nothing and you suspect registry instead, try RegMon
(again from sysinternals)
Hope it helps,
Alex.
P.s. I am not working for Sysinternals, I just love their tools. :-)
------------------ I don't know, never saw that behaviour, sounds a bit strange.
But if I have to guess, I would think there are some (old) GLib/GTK or
alike DLL's in your system causing trouble.
You may look at DLL's e.g. in system32 which are named similar to the
ones in the Ethereal dir and try to temporarily rename that one(s).

Subject: Second level menu items not accessible
I am running on a Windows XP system
Ethereal Version 0.10.10 and WinPcap_3_0. I can successfully capture and
view packets.
However, I am unable to look at any second
level menu items (Such as File->Export, Edit->Time Reference,
View->Time Display Format, ...).
I have totally uninstalled, removed
registry entries, and reinstalled.
Any suggestions?
