Wireshark-bugs: [Wireshark-bugs] [Bug 9062] Visual C++ Runtime Library Error "The application ha

Comment # 6 on bug 9062 from
Evan,

Further testing revealed a certain condition where these VC++ Runtime Library
Errors occur. Whenever we get to desktops with Wireshark using standard Windows
"Remote Desktop" (i.e. mstsc), the VC++ run time error occurs. When logging 
onto the workstations directly (i.e. not remotely), this VC++ Runtime Library
Error does NOT occur. This leads me to believe that there are some local
security policies that are getting enforced in my environment that are
preventing Statistics/IO Graph and Flow Graph from working.

If I understood how these GUI components rely on windows local security
policies, I could possibly look for a work-around. Conversely, I don't think
that these two component should have any higher security requirement compared
to capturing packets, which is working fine remotely. In otherwords, I think
that a security policy is being used that should actually be ignored by the
application.

Do you know what security policy could be preventing these reports from
displaying for remote desktop users? If we have no clue, then I can perhaps
send the dumps you requested to provide more information.

I have tested this case on several remote systems and physical systems and the
results are consist. 

Thank you!

Paul
