Attached should be an updated patch to add real-time capture for Win32
versions.  Capture filters now work, but if the main program is terminated
while a capture is in progress, the capture process is left running.
Clicking the stop button will terminate it though.

I think the only way to get the capture process to terminate cleanly if the
main program has terminated is to pass in the process handle of the main
program so that the child can check it to see if it has terminated.  I shall
try this later on.

Maybe the main program shouldn't allow a user termination to occur until the
capture process has been stopped ?
