--
When running wireshark, from a clean install from wireshark-setup-0.99.6a.exe,
Sophos anti-virus reports that winnt\system32\packet.dll is infected by the
Mal/Generic-A virus.

After deleting the file and reinstalling from scratch I still get the same
message. This seems to have started happening since an update to Sophos
Anti-Virus on October 4th.

Sophos anti-virus version: 6.5.9
Threat detection data: 4.22
Threat detection engine: 2.50.6
Last updated 5th October 2007
