I am new to Wireshark and need it for a college class lab. I am using an Intel based MacBook Pro operating Mac OS X version 10.5.6. I downloaded the binary version of Wireshark 1.0.5 (OS X Intel.dmg) and installed it without any problems into my Applications folder. I also made a "Wireshark" sub-folder and copied the Utilities/Command Line and Startup folders to there.

When launching Wireshark it opens with X11 (Xquartz 2.1.5 - (xorg- server 1.3.0-apple22) (2.1.5)) and pulls up the Network Analyzer. It also pulls up a separate window with the following error message:

The following errors were found while loading the MIBS:

-:0 1 module-not-found failed to locate MIB module `IF-MIB'

The Current Path is: /usr/local/share/mibs/ietf:/usr/local/share/mibs/ iana:/usr/local/share/mibs/irtf:/usr/local/share/mibs/site:/usr/local/ share/mibs/tubs:/usr/local/share/pibs/ietf:/usr/local/share/pibs/site:/ usr/local/share/pibs/tubs

There are also no interface options available in the "Capture Options" window. Any help would certainly be appreciated.
