Hey Jesper,
This is why we have to test and test and test :O(
Something must have crept into the code, as other bizarreness is being reported. However, I am not seeing anything odd.  What machine type and OS are you using ???

Did you print out any records to see if all were corrupt, or only one ??

Can you send a sample argus-3.0.5 output file with the bad TCP data??  If you have a packet file that generates the corrupt data, can you share ???

Sorry, shouldn't be hard to fix.

Carter
