Hi,

it looks like Checkpoint is distributing possibly modified versions of
Ethereal with neither a link to the source code nor a copy of the license
or a link to ethereal.com (Violates 3. of GPL)...

Source:
http://www.checkpoint.com/techsupport/downloadsng/utilities.html

This document has a hint that there is even a modified version of
Ethereal for CSPs only (Page 55) (Violates at least 4. of GPL):

http://www.checkpoint.com/techsupport/downloads/html/ethereal/fw_monitor_rev1_01.pdf

I wonder if the GPL does not apply in Israel...
