  New and Updated Features

   The following features are new (or have been significantly
   updated) since the last release:

     o AirPcap, support (which provides raw mode capture under
       Windows) has been enhanced to allow capturing on multiple
       AirPcap adapters simultaneously using the Multi-Channel
       Aggregator.

     o VoIP call playback has been enhanced. If Wireshark is linked
       with the PortAudio library, you can play back G.711
       conversations. This feature is present in the standard Windows
       installer.

     o The capture interface dialog display has been enhanced.

     o The "Save" button has been removed from the "Ok" / "Apply" /
       "Cancel" button group in the following dialogs:

          o Edit/Preferences

          o View/Coloring Rules

          o Capture/Capture Filters

          o Analyze/Display Filters

          o Analyze/Enabled Protocols

       If you're fond of the "Save" button it can be resurrected in
       the User Interface preferences.

     o Reading from stdin ("-i -") now works under Windows.

     o Expert analysis has been improved.

     o Wireshark now supports USB as a media type. If you're running
       a Linux distribution with version 2.6.11 of the kernel or
       greater and you have the usbmon module enabled and you have a
       recent CVS version of libpcap (post-0.9.5) installed you can
       also do live captures. More details can be found at the
       USB capture setup page on the wiki.

     o The number of WEP keys that the user can specify in the IEEE
       802.11 protocol preferences has been increased from 4 to 64.
