I using Ethereal 0.9.6 at Windows 98SE. It works ok, except that I can't figure out how to apply my created display filter. According to the manual (0.8.19 !?) it should ba an "Apply" button to be "pressed" for applying the filter at the displayed packets. But there is no such button in menu Edit->Display filters ! (Only "Save" and "Close")
And I can't find any other menu for such a function ?
Is the Windows version lacking that function or what ?

Along the bottom of the Ethereal main window you should see a button labeled "Filter", a text box to type a filter into, and two buttons labeled "Reset" and "Apply".
