I built wireshark using MSVC 2008 Express Edition and specified MSVC_VARIANT=MSVC2008EE in config.nmake.  I then ran wireshark.exe from the wireshark-gtk2 directory and received an "Unable To Locate Component" error dialog:

"The application has failed to start because MSVCR71.dll was not found.  Re-installing the application may fix the problem."

After installing wireshark using nsis, I received the same error.

I verified that msvcr90.dll is installed properly.

As a test, I obtained a copy of MSVCR71.dll and put it in the same directory as wireshark.exe, and wireshark ran, but that's cheating.  I'd like to run against msvcr90.dll

Am I missing something?

Thanks
Matt
