Hi,
I have built the wireshark from  0.99.6 on Windows XP and created installer.
When I launch the wireshark application and start the capture, it crashes after capturing few messages.
[Window pops up saying "Wireshark has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." Typically like any other application that crashes on Microsoft OS]
This happens in the 0.99.6 version without any changes to the original sources.
 
Is there a fix available to make 0.99.6 release to work without crash.?
 
My requirement is to add a new dissector to a 0.99.6(latest) release and create installer.
