And are you absolutely sure that you have you co-ordinates set correctly (lat/long etc)
(That's caught me out one or two times) :-[

Len,
You posted that message at 12:50 CST, and the ISS was almost directly overhead your QTH, so you were not hearing things. Hi Hi
Are other satellites being correctly displayed? If so, that points at old ISS keps, however recently acquired. Unlike other satellites, the ISS is frequently reboosted, and even some of the on line sources are a little slow to catch up. Get the latest updates from Celestrak or directly from NORAD. I am using the Keps at the end of the message, and they agree with a couple of on line sources I checked. (Of course, they could ALL be wrong, seriously.)
Another thing to check is that the program is properly converting the time to UTC. From the SATPC32 mail screen, toggle between L and U. The difference in the displayed times should be 6 hours. Rarely, the OS messes up the daylight and standard time conversion.
Again, knowing whether this is an ISS-only problem is key information.
