Below is the output from trafshow and trafshow -n. The -n stop dns
resolution, but trafshow doesn't recognize the protocol type (igmp) and
doesn't display an port numbers. ipchains doesn't seem to filter igmp
since

/sbin/ipchains -A input -p all -j REJECT -s 224.0.0.0/8 -i ppp0 -d $ALL
/sbin/ipchains -A input -p all -j REJECT -d 224.0.0.0/8 -i ppp0 -s $ALL
/sbin/ipchains -A output -p all -j REJECT -s 224.0.0.0/8 -i ppp0 -d $ALL
/sbin/ipchains -A output -p all -j REJECT -d 224.0.0.0/8 -i ppp0 -s $ALL

does nothing ($ALL=0.0.0.0/0)

How?  I don't use any multicast apps. But if I can't block it with
ipchains, what can I use.

I'm not even running routed, so I don't know what daemon could be the
problem.

Any idea? 

Thanks,
