I installed Wireshark 0.99.3 a little while ago, and even though the
associate file types was checked off during the install, it did not
properly grab them from Ethereal.

Clicking on them would launch Wireshark, but the icon was still
Ethereal.

The workaround was to edit the registry (Windows XP) and change all
the file types from ethereal-file to wireshark-file.

I'm not going to report this in the Bugzilla though, since it's a
limited-time issue.
