Hi.

When I tried to start capture pockets, program hangs for a while (about 1-2
min.) and sends broadcast (NBNS name query) and DNS query with ETHERXXXX?!!!!!
question.
Where "?" is every letter from A to Z and number 0 to 9 (totaly 327 pockets
including DNS answers) . "!!!!!" is a 5 digit number and it differs in every
capture try.

What is going on and how to get rid of it?

Ethereal 0.9.14 is running under Win98SE OS with WinPcap 3.0.
