Thanks Hans--that looks pretty slick.
In this case though I would like to use the current version of Wireshark
and I'm wondering if this U3P package allows Wireshark to run from a
flash drive without installing anything on the host including WinPcap.
This would be especially appealing to me--but I'm not sure it's
possible, especially with the WinPcap part.
Thanks,
--Jim
