The issue was that in the recently used files there were some files on the network path - that was unavailable anymore. After 10 minutes Wireshark loaded, I've cleared the list and now it loads fine.
Not sure if we should do something about it or not.

For some reason, when I'm launching Wireshark (both 1.1.2 and SVN 27315, on XP, SP3), after it is done with all the dissector loading stuff, the UI disappears - and does not appear. The process is still alive, with one thread, not doing much. Process Explorer of it:

Any ideas? If there's a PDB for the SVN build, I can perhaps get a better stack.
