Ok, here goes nothing..

I have been using Ethereal on OS X. It has a nice gui and everyhting. I
cannot for the life of me find where Wireshark has been installed.

Where is the nice program in the applications list like  Ethereal?

Be kind... :>



Start X11 (usually  Applications/Utilities/X11.app).
in the xterm type "wireshark"
or maybe "/usr/local/bin/wirehsark"
if the path is not set up.

depending on the distribution you used, it might be at some other place.
you can do  "find / -print | grep wireshark$" to search for it.
