I experienced a similar problem when corporate pushed Wireshark 0.99.7.  All I needed to do was update my Wireshark build environment for 0.99.7 (including the tool set), then rebuild my DLL and on MS Windows XP, copy the DLL(s) to the C:\Program Files\Wireshark\plugins\0.99.7 directory.

Subject: [Wireshark-dev] Reason for dll to stop working

Hi,
I have a dll that worked till version Wireshark0.99.6a but stopped working after Wireshark0.99.7.
 
I suspected that differences mentioned in '5. Update "old style" plugin' of README.plugins in the 'doc' folder could be the reason for breaking the compatibility between Wireshark0.99.6a & Wireshark0.99.7.
But since there is no difference, that is not a probable cause.
 
What could be the probable cause. Which all paths can I explore?
Any suggestions?

thanks & regards,

Ash
