New and Updated Features The following features are new (or have been significantly updated) since the last release: o We are now offering Wireshark as a [14]U3 package for Windows. U3 packages are suitable for using on USB drives and CD-ROMs. It's still experimental, but you're welcome to try it out and report any problems or successes. o Decryption support for WPA/WPA2 and SNMPv3 has been added. The TDS / MS SQL dissector now de-obfuscates passwords. o 64-bit file handling has been improved. o The Find function now selects the corresponding packet detail item. Find functionality has been added to the TCP and SSL stream dialogs. o Main window keyboard navigation has been improved. o Windows file dialogs now show the "places" bar (Desktop, My Documents, My Computer, My Network Places, etc). File dialogs now default to "My Documents" in accordance with Microsoft's HIG. o [15]AirPcap support (which provides raw mode capture under Windows) has been enhanced to allow capturing on multiple AirPcap adapters simultaneously. o You can no longer install Wireshark on Windows 95, 98, or ME. (OK, so it's not a feature per se, but it's an important change). The last version known to work on these systems is [16]Ethereal 0.99.0. o ASN.1 BER-encoded files can now be dissected according to a user-specified syntax.
