You can't use plugins built with VS2005 with a version of Wireshark that was not built with VS2005 due to the c run-time issues.  You must either:

1) Build your plugin with the same version of VC as used to build the Wireshark installation, currently VC2008 for wireshark.org downloads.

2) Build a version of Wireshark and install it using the same version of VC used to build your plugin.
