It is HTTP and I've tried with two versions of Ethereal: 0.10.7 and
0.10.6. When I view a TCP stream I can see in the HTTP headers that
it's gzip-encoded HTML and I do see the bytestream below the headers.
I'm using Windows XP SP1 and I've even booted into Knoppix 3.2 (which
has Ethereal included, version 0.9.something). When I open the same
capture file from there it still won't decode. This thread:
http://www.ethereal.com/lists/ethereal-dev/200311/msg00244.html
shows how one person got it to work, but I was unable to rebuild
zlib.dll using his version of the makefile. I did rebuild it myself
but as I mentioned, but it would not work.
Any ideas? Can anyone else view gzip-encoded text or html from a capture?
