Wireshark shows you the bytes in the order received on the wire when 
looking at the hex display.  The order to interpret the bytes in for a 
particular field depends on the protocol.  The byte order of the machine 
you're running Wireshark on only affects how the data structures are 
stored internally and Wireshark will convert as necessary (i.e. little 
endian to host endian type functions).
