What version of Visual Studio did you use to compile your plugin?  If
different from the one used for Wireshark releases, then your dll might
be linked to a different version of the c-runtime library and cause the
symptoms you see.

Try building the installer on your machine (you'll need NSIS as per the
developers guide) using 'nmake -f Makefile.nmake packaging' and letting
others install that.  This will ensure all the code is linked against
the same c-runtime library.
