Version 0.7.3 of Ethereal is now available at:

	http://ethereal.zing.org/

The biggest change is the addition of a color routines. You can
change the foreground and background colors of the rows in the packet
summary list, based upon display filters. You can make your TCP packets red,
IP yellow-on-black, or make any HTTP packet blue. You have the full
power of Ethereal's display filters to color your packets.

Updated decoders include RSVP, NBNS, Token-Ring, ICMP, and IGMP.
Initial support for decoding ATM was added.

Much work has gone into optimizing slow parts of Ethereal, and make
some default behaviors and error messages more user-friendly.

A security-related race-condition when capturing packets via Ethereal
has been fixed.
