Once recompiled, you will get adns_dll.dll as the result you need. Make sure that this file is propagated properly to the directories wireshark-gtk1 and wireshark-gtk2.
If you do not recompile ADNS, Wireshark might crash when "Network name resolution" is enabled. If you did not have "Network name resolution" enabled, then additional ifnformation on what brought you to the crash is needed to be able to assist you. / Regards, Peter
