+This option will open a new window that displays a list of all conversations

+The list has one row for each unique conversation and displays total number of frames/bytes seen as well as number of frames/bytes in each direction.

+By default the list is sorted according to the number of frames but by clicking on the column header it is possible to resort the list in ascending or descending order by any column.
