There were a couple of post on this earlier today.  Seems to be a false 
positive, there's a checklist at Symantec's site (Gerald posted this link 
earlier: 
http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/trojan.zlob.html )

Not that it means anything, but Symantec is pointing users to Wireshark for 
packet captures at this page: 
http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/ent-security.nsf/0/edfb148ba33e3f3588256efb006d148a?OpenDocument
The document must be fairly recently updated, as it refers to "Wireshark, 
formerly Ethereal"

Neither Trend Micro's OfficeScan nor Computer Associates EZ AV detect Wireshark 
as having the trojan on any of my machines at home or at work.
