Thank you Steve, I believe you are right.

Jaap/Ulf - I know you are busy and this does not appear to be a high
priority bug.  Is there any work around to "disable" the bug 852 fix so
that if you want to easily display TCP stream text and are willing to
except the crash risk you can?

Thanks,
  --Jim

This appears to be related to bug #1043:

  http://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1043

The work-around has caused the last character of each packet to be 
dropped, which is where the username and password characters are in a 
telnet session.
