Very cool Peter and Sven! Thanks for your help. I had to enable netflow V9 
on my router to make it work properly. Here is my test from today:

Now I'll start hacking the PortTracker plugin. I'll probably make a new 
PortTrackerIn and PortTrackerOut plugin just to keep everything in order. 
Thanks again for the help, and for making an incedibly great, useful 
tool. -PC
