Most of the labels are stuff like "Bad SMB:" and I'm not sure there's a
lot of value in repeating that on every line. The existing code
certainly doesn't and that sort of thing tends to clutter up logfiles.

The addresses aren't terribly helpful in general, and printing them
might be considered information leakage. I'd suggest going with just
the offsets.

Sure, that certainly wouldn't hurt. Your call on whether to do two
