I have used the latest version for which they have the developer's kit.
They don't have a DK for their beta version.

According to Ed in http://ethereal.zing.org/lists/ethereal-dev/200002/msg00112.html
you need to pull down the source for the win32 libpcap and compile it yourself.
I haven't done that myself. If anyone wants to make up a working version of
this, with libs, dlls, and header files, I'll be glad to use it. :)

If you think it would be useful. You'll have to worry about maintenance though;
for every version of Ethereal, you'd have to make sure that it includes
any new source files.  I don't have my VC GUI set up... I do everything
on the command line.
