Actually there's one error that comes up due to pathnames.  Convert it to
short pathnames or move it out of "C:\Program Files\..." and it should be
fine.

There is another one, but it seems to be more winpcap related.  If that's it,
try removing winpcap, and reinstalling.  IIRC, there was some issue with a
newer version--Perhaps try downgrading?

Note:  I'm not a Win<bleh> person at all.  Take this as "I think I recall
seeing something about this..." information.  :)
