I have been using ethereal for a while and have lived with the fact 
that ethereal seems to block when there is no network traffic on the 
wire.  It has become annoying finally and I wonder if there is some way 
to configure it so that it doesn't block when there is no traffic.  
What I mean by block is that when there is no traffic if I minimize the 
window and bring it up again all the widgets turn grey as they don't 
refresh and I cannot select any packets (even when auto-update of list) 
is selected.  I am using version 0.7.7 and will upgrade to 0.7.8 soon 
to see if it still does it. :)
