craig, you might want to try subscribing to ethereal-user 
for most question regarding ethereal.

my question to you is, why do you need a log analyzer for 
ethereal?  ethereal is a network capturing analysis tool. 
you could run it as live capture (scrolling slows down your 
machine) or just default capture setting (then again, 
depends on your filter rule).  if you're talking about being 
able to read the capture dump files, ethereal should be able 
to open and read most formats (i.e. tcpdump, etc...).

i would say make sure you have stable release of winpcap.  gene
