I copy pasted the above, same result.  However I noticed my computer is 
bogging down a bit!

Top shows about twenty instances of iptraf running now!  Apparently it's 
working but not creating the display when I start if from Appfinder?

It's not that important, I'm satisfied just having it listed so I can 
find it.  It needs tp run from a terminal command line anyway.

Thanks for all the help.
