I'm glad that worked.  If there is a way you can encapsulate what you've learned/done to improve the Wireshark instructions, it will perhaps make it that much easier for the next person.  I tried to improve it recently, but apparently it's missing some steps, depending on the existing configuration of the Windows machine.
