Thanks to everyone's help 3.1.1 is up and running great.

What seems to be missing is some type of notification showing open/closed ports. Or am I just missing something? Is there a reason why no icon, or do I have brain?

Curious minds are wanting to know.

There should be an icon in the bottom left corner if set port is firewalled/not forwarded.

Well I just can't find that little bugger anywhere. Previous version 2.x.x had it in left hand corner as you said. It showed firewalled or not. Opened program to full screen, check every pull-down option and every setting. Nada.

As far as I can tell, you're right, it's missing from the KDE4 version (version 3).
