reasons for leaving current job


My question is when prospective employers ask the question during an interview "why are you leaving your current position" I get tongue tied.  I've been at my current job for 15 years and I need a change from the boredom and monotony, but don't know the best way to answer.  Any advice would be appreciated.

I just changed jobs about three months ago.  I was bored out of my mind.   The money was fine but it was not fun going to work.   It took me about three weeks to find a new job (I did not quit my job while looking).  I told my new employeer the truth.   In my case though, I wanted to get out of running a computer network and work for an anti-virus company.  I blew away my current boss in the interview by spending about 40 hours learning how their software worked.  He knew I was clearly interested in working for them.

Tell the employer that you have gone as far as you can at that company and need a change which will provide you with more of challenge.
