Wireshark

This release fixes security-related bugs in the AIM, MMSE, SIP, and SPNEGO dissectors. It also adds a number of user interface improvements.

This release fixed several security bugs. All users are
encouraged to update.

This release fixes two major bugs: under Windows, the error
"** WARNING **: error opening /usr/local/share/ethereal/
asn1/default.tt, No such file or directory" would be printed at
startup, and the source release was missing several files
required for compiling.

This version updates the UI, adds a "most recently used" list to the file menu, expands the help menu, expands the functionality of the "matches" operator, and adds support for 1 ms resolution to the I/O statistics. Also, the Windows installer now allows the user to choose between the traditional GTK+ version 1 interface and a new GTK+ 2 interface.

Many performance improvements have been made in the code. Most users should see a 2 to 3 times performance increase when loading and working with capture files. A "matches" display filter operator has been added, which supports Perl-compatible regular expressions. Tethereal can now dump packet data in XML (PDML) format. The main application menus have been rearranged and the help windows have been revamped, along with a host of other UI enhancements. The capture progress window now features bar graphs. Crash bugs in the SMB and Q.931 dissectors have been fixed.
