Why off list?  Sounds like it's on topic to me and I'm sure we'd all like to
know the results...at least I would.

If you've already installed Ethereal, then you should have Editcap installed
too.
http://www.ethereal.com/docs/man-pages/editcap.1.html

Running this from a command line cuts a 593mb cap file down to 273mb - first
half of the file.

c:\> editcap -r infile outfile 1-300000


and this gives me the second half at 320mb.

c:\> editcap -r infile outfile 300001-900000


Adjust your numbers accordingly and it should work.
