Didn't you have got a sample zip file of source code of ethereal ?

No - we only have a tarball, but there are applications on Windows that can unpack tarballs (WinZip?).

Containing a sample project dsw that I could compile ?

No - we try to share as much in the way of source file lists, etc. between the build files used on UN*Xes and on Windows (so that to add a source file to Ethereal you only have to add it in one place, rather than having to remember to add the same file in two places, as we often *didn't* remember that when you *did* have to add it in two places), so we don't have any .dsw files, we just have Makefiles for the command-line nmake tool that comes with the various Microsoft compilers.

Could you communicate it the url ?

Download one of the .tar.gz or .tar.bz2 files.
