Brent,

        In addition to those excellent suggestions, I'd suggest you upgrade to
1.8,1-RELEASE.  It's been out about 2-3 weeks now, and it's much more stable
than any of the other versions.  It's also configured a bit better out of the
box. :)

        You can find that at:  http://snort.sourcefire.com/downloads .  You
may also want to take a bit of time to have a look at the FAQ.  Many, Many
good answers are in there.  http://snort.sourcefire.com/docs/faq.html

        And if that still doesn't help, we'll break out the clue sticks and
whack you.  ;-)
