The missing IESHIMS.DLL isn't an issue, I think it's some sort
of compatibility dll that I've noticed depends always reports as missing.

What does the output of "dumpbin /headers
path\to\your\wireshark\exectuable" look like for the version that doesn't
work.  The interesting bit is the first part of the output, the section
headers bits aren't much use in this case.

What I would like to see is the pe header windows target.
