I have read through (not thoroughly so I may have missed something) the
README for inspect, but I haven't seen how to eliminate outbound traffic
easilly.  I hate to disable the inspection entirely - but so far all it
has showed me is outbound packets which generally are binaries or
encrypted.  I saw where you can set up specific servers - would I have to
set up my servers and make default settings ignored?

You could use BPF filters.

        snort <options> "not src <internal_net>"

If any of you can point me in the right direction - I'd be grateful.  I
was happy to get Snort up and running with Acid fairly easilly.

Also - as far as maintaining rules...  where is the best resource for
finding rules to root out new vulnerabilities?  Is that from updating
snort as it get's updated or is there another place I should look.  Is
someone providing a subscription service?
