Hi, I think the problem may arise from an "old" preference file, if you install on a virgin system I don't think the problem occurs. Note the "/" in the string "error opening C:\Program Files\Ethereal\asn1/default.tt, No such file or directory" Which was the original problem (?).
In a install without the "old" preference file the string is: "C:\Program\Ethereal\asn1\default.tt" And no console window is opened. The discussion about default.tt start around : http://www.ethereal.com/lists/ethereal-dev/200310/msg00671.html And http://www.ethereal.com/lists/ethereal-dev/200401/msg00194.html give an explanation on what's it used for. Hope this helps.
