actually, the source code for all of the programs:
Analyzer.exe, packet95.exe, PacketNT.exe, WinDump.exe, WinDump95.exe
(plus libpcap, tcpslice, convdump, FlowsDet, query too)

can be found here:
http://netgroup-serv.polito.it/tools/analyzer/Install/bin/sources.zip

it's mirrored, of course, in the usual place too:

take it easy,
