The DBS-Etherwatch filter fails to read Etherwatch files from the current
Etherwatch V6

The problem appears to be that teh filter expects tzwo spaces after the mafic
"ETHERWATCH" in the first line of the file wheras V6 (donät know for earlier
versions) does only have one single space between the magick and the versioin
number ("ETHERWATCH V6.0")

The workaround is to edit the Etherwatchj text capture file and add a space
between "ETHERWATCH" and "Vx.y"

Fixing th efilter should be as easy.
