But that number may vary depending on what you are running. Of more concern is the ls INFECTED output in your partial report. See if you can get a good copy of ls and compare the byte size, md5sum and permissions on it. Below is what my system reports. -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 80688 May 4 12:26 /bin/ls md5sum /bin/ls d319011a3eb49338fe333753b0cfd7bc /bin/ls You need to track that down asap to figure out what that is. It has been awhile but I ran through the exercise to examine what processes were hidden. I want to say it was the ones in []'s when you do a ps -eaf but I don't know if I remember that correctly. I am sure someone here will set me straight on this. :) -- Scot L. Harris webid@xxxxxxxxxx Advancement in position.
