That worked. FYI, prior to 1.8.0, starting the GeoIP path with ".\" made it
relative to the Wireshark program directory. Now, starting the path with "\"
(which I never tried before) makes it relative to the root of the drive. It
does appear that the current version has a problem with the leading dot.

Anyway, it works. I confirmed that GeoIP lookups continued to function properly
even if I changed the drive letter of the USB flash drive.

Thanks.
