Well, I have now compiled and run chkrootkit and I need help interpreting the output. The thing I don't understand is the suspicious files output. I would be greatful if someone smarter than I would take a quick look at the output and tell me if you think I was hacked. Everything is working OK, but that's what concers me. My internet connect setup is a cable setup that goes through a Linksys Cable/DSL Router and the only ports forwarded are 22, 25, 80, 110, 143, 1723 & 10000. All others are closed. I thought I was fairly secure. Here is what chkrootkit said:
