I was just wondering, since there was a WireShark Portable in PAF on the wireshark website http://www.wireshark.org/download.html that John helped them with I think, why is it not on PortableApps.com?

I'm not John of course, but he's probably still working on it a bit, or is just a bit behind from all the work he's done.
....Could it be that it is not included here as although it is portable, it needs administration rights to run it...so it's portable but not always 'runnable'? Much in the same way that TrueCrypt is portable but can only be used with administration rights, portable but not always 'runnable'.
when I start the wireshark, it will teporary install additional commercial drivers, only after that it is apparently able to work. Admin rights are clearly needed for this app.
