No. The complete version information for the 0.99.7 release is "Version 0.99.7
(SVN Rev 23910)". What was the name of the file you used to install? It should
be "wireshark-setup-0.99.7.exe". The size and MD5, SHA1, and RMD-160 digests are

wireshark-setup-0.99.7.exe: 20769483 bytes
MD5(wireshark-setup-0.99.7.exe)=388386d0ffc2c54ad945a575ee19edd8
SHA1(wireshark-setup-0.99.7.exe)=5b678995011c1d9b32cb6e5e55d9f4d0d458f3ae
RIPEMD160(wireshark-setup-0.99.7.exe)=122a3d6f1e99db64975f13044045d9f00367c6f3
