Most, or all?  I.e., in an unfiltered capture, are you seeing TCP
traffic to and from the machine running Wireshark?

Yes, I'm seeing traffic to and from the machine running Wireshark

That sounds like a different case.

What OS are you running on the machine doing the capture?  And what type
of network adapter are you capturing on?

XP pro, vmware virtual machine. VMware Accellerated AMD PCNet Adapter

And, if this is on Ethernet, are you using VLANs?  If so, is the TCP
traffic to and from the host running Wireshark on a VLAN?  (I.e., does
it have a VLAN header?)

Forgive my ignorance, I'm not sure how to check for a VLAN header, but I 
believe this part of the network isn't VLANed.
