Hi Robert,
Thanks for your input... I have a VPN connection to
the site and changed the executable... wireshark.exe to TestWS.exe and
tried it... Same results... Still will not load.

GenB! Killed Wireshark
Rename
the wireshark executable. Then you can run the program.

I have a client
that did not keep up with the updates on a Windows 2000 server and was
infected a couple of weeks ago with the Conficker GenB! virus. The
server had WireShark Installed on it and it appears that the virus killed
it. When they told me it had problems I tried to run WireShark it would
just come up with a the splash screen showing "Initializing dissectors..." and
it would do nothing else. I cannot do anything with it. If I try
to right click on the button in the status line and close it, it will simply
tells me that the program is not responding. The only way to clear it is
to reboot the machine. I tried uninstalling the older version and
installing the newest release, but it reacts the same way.
I didn't get the
possible connection between the virus and the failure until I saw the news
release that said Conficker was attacking
WireShark.
