not a solution - but a work around perhaps
you could get wireshark to use multiple files so that you don't end up with one giant capture file

Im running WinXP SP2 with 1 gig ofRAM. Is the problem due to low RAM or is it something else? How can I avoid this in the future? How does wireshark make use of memory while its running?
Thanks

The famous philosopher Rene Descartes walked into a bar.
"Can I get you a drink?", the barman asked.
"I think not," Descartes replied... and instantly disappeared in a puff of smoke.
