The netstat problem? (I don't remember you mentioning any ipfstat
problem in your original message). The "netstat: kvm_read: Bad address"
message usually means that while netstat was busy (usually busy trying
to map an IP address to a name), the next connection it was about to
display has already closed and gone away, so it can't get info on it
anymore. It's a fairly common occurence, and nothing to worry about.

I'm getting timeouts trying to do a reverse lookup of
ftp.noteworthyms.com's IP (206.140.113.7) also, so I think there's
something wrong with someone's nameserver(s). ns.aads.net, in
particular, doesn't seem to be answering DNS requests.
