I ran into the same problem, where I realized that I needed the Windows SDK to do the actual build in Windows 7 32-bit. The problem was that my development install was broken where I could not properly install the Windows SDK (step 2) if I already installed the C compiler service pack (step 4). I would uninstall whatever you have done in section 2.2.1, and reinstall *all* those components in order from steps 1 through 4. Unfortunately, I had to re-image my Windows installation before I could get the Wireshark build process to work because the uninstall broke the registry to the point that I couldn't get Windows SDK to re-install properly. Starting over, I could get the Wireshark installation to work if I ran each step without skipping steps 2 or 4, this time installing the Windows SDK even though I was on a 32-bit Windows 7 computer. I would consider removing the "if you want to build 64-bit binaries for Windows 7" text simply because it can give people the impression that you don't need to install it if you have Windows 7 32-bit. If someone has successfully built Wireshark for Windows 7 32-bit skipping steps 2 and 4 of section 2.2.1, then I must have a misunderstanding somewhere. Hope it helps! John D.
