Hi Brian,

We have not the same environment.
On my station, I have generated WireShark 1.1.3,
and I use "Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition".
In this environment, your plugin is running correctly.

I remember that others have encountered problems
for using a recent plugin with older versions of WireShark,
and/or for generating plugin without having the complete
development tree of WireShark.
Have you searched in the mail archives ?

Regards
Philippe
