subject: Wireshark 1.10.10 on XP

Howdy! Sean,

I am using Wireshark 1.10.10 now on this XP box in a Admin user acct.
Both of the times I clicked the STOP button I saw it Save a file and
the icon for it gets removed from the Taskbar.

The other Wireshark icon that only shows a screen that says it is
waiting for capture file, now shows the capture data when I click it.

There is a small window in the center of the screen that says to wait
until the file is closed.

The first time I Stopped the capture and wanted to start another
session I couldn't because the Wireshark Title Bar was greyed out
because that small window was still open.
I waited 15 minutes and that small window was still over the Wireshark
window so I use Task Manager to Kill Wireshark.

Then I restarted Wireshark in a Admin acct. using RunAs... and Started
another Capture session.

Today the same thing happened after Pressing the STOP button.

I left the house to do some errands and left the computer running.
Four hours later the screen looked the same as it was when I left the
house, and I had to Kill Wireshark again.

Would You think I need to ReInstall Wireshark 1.10.10 ?

I first downloaded the latest version but it said I needed to use an
older version of Wireshark for XP so I got version 1.10.10 .

I've never used Ethereal or Wireshark on my Vista box so I don't have
any way to compare it here, that's why I'm asking You since You are the
only person I know who used Ethereal or Wireshark.

Thanks for the help!
