Ethereal has some features called "Statistics/Endpoint list" respectively
"Statistics/Conversation list".
It is not the same as the thing you get in SnifferPro, but in my point it
may even more useful in many cases.

It can be used during live capture also I learnt some week ago. I haven't
used that so much yet.
I think that you need to have "Update list of packets in real time" checked
in the Capture dialogue to get that to work.
