when I click on the 'moblock simplegui' in accessories I get nothing! installed all relevant dependencies too. Any ideas?

UPDATE: I get the followign running moblock-simplegui from the terminal
willmc@willbuntu:~$ moblock-simplegui
/usr/bin/moblock-simplegui:66:in `initialize': Failed to open file '/usr/share/pixmaps/moblock-gui.png': Permission denied (GLib::FileError)
from /usr/bin/moblock-simplegui:66
MoBlock like PeerGuardian, runs by default on all interfaces. I do not believe this can be configured to only run on the 'internet' interface. I believe it is developed that way in order to prevent computers on a LAN from contacting malicious sites, etc. It would defeat the purpose other wise.
I was to code a complete GUI in ruby. Unfortunately i haven't got any time to spare so i just made a "tail" in a "trayable" GTK window. Nothing more, nothing less.
You can essentially have the same result if you use alltray on a terminal with "tail -f" on moblock.log.
If you want features then wait for mikji to complete "GNOME Blocklist". This is what he wrote earlier in this thread...Moblock shouldn't block LAN ip:s. If it does, it will show up in the log.Hi folks,
I don't really post here that much (long time lurker), but I see you're looking for a moblock gui! Well, I've been working on one in gnome-python for the past few days, and it's about half done. I ran across this thread and thought I'd let you guys know about it so you don't duplicate work.
It'll have a dbus daemon, a notification applet and a preferences item. The first is mostly done, the second is trivial and I haven't gotten started on the last part.
I'll start a new thread when my sourceforge project is approved and I release something (a few days to a week).
Here are some screenshots; the first one is of the preference panel, and the second one is what you get when you click the notification icon.
This sounds great! thanks for the help, and well done pelle.k for the howto!
I decided to uninstall Moblock. When I shut down I see the process is running and being terminated. I am sure it is because it starts with Daemon. How do I remove it?
