Thanks for the tips on getting 0.9.15 to build with MSVC++.  I've been
working with Ethereal in Linux for a while, but this is my first dive into
win32.

Ethereal finally full links and runs, but when I attempt a capture I get the
pop-up message:

ethereal.exe - Application Error
The instruction at "0x77f92373" referenced memory at "0x00000010".  The
memory could not be "written"

The application is failing inside "libpcap_dump_open" at the "fwrite"
statement.  I've loaded all the packages recommended in the README.win32,
and WinPcap 3.01.  I've also noticed that it is unable to open and read any
capture files.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated by this Windows Development
Newbie.

Regards,
Mike
