Probably, though I don't think PHP can be used to monitor all network traffic. You might be able to get something to parse ethereal logs. You'll probably be just as far ahead if you just set up Ethereal & read it's logs manually.
Real programmers don't comment their code. If it was hard to write, it should be hard to understand.
