Dear Debian users,
I think my computer was hacked. A music CD that I bought in a store
(Redbook audio
standard) was left in the CD/DVD bay. Then, mysteriously, a song
by Destiny's Child ("Jumpin' Jumpin' ") got transformed into the *.ogg
format, but
I didn't ask for that. Same sound from stereo playing Redbook format
audio CD
and the *.ogg file on the hard drive ...
I do not have hard facts but tis seems to be just clicking wrong
key/mouse which caused to creaye such thing. ...
So I took a test-drive of Ubuntu 8.04 Live CD, and then did a complete
reinstall. Now, I'm using Ubuntu and the firestarter firewall.
I'd like to know about ideas for security, including for example
intrusion-detection systems.
If you are playing with Ubuntu, please ask their mailing list.
Then you get better support.
Yes. Truth is I left the music CD in the bay and the BIOS settings had
the CD/DVD drive as
the first boot device. It may have contributed to my Debian installation
crashing.

The Gnome system monitor now shows incoming traffic at 4 kB/sec every 20
seconds. Maybe
this is when my computer contacts an SNTP server ( simple network time
protocol).
Would a package such as ethereal tell me what this traffic is?
Thanks,
David
