Ahh, so what you are saying is that I own the "/" directory. Hmm, how
could that have happened, and on 2 separate machines? I never thought of
"/" being a directory, more like the base there initial directories were
placed on. Anyway, when I get home today from work I'll check and change
the permissions. Thanks for the heads-up.

Yeah, there are other files scattered throughout the filesystem owned by
me. Some are due to being compiled as me, and installed as root, and
others I'm not too sure about. Again, thanks for the tips, and I'll do a
followup on this once I confirmed /.
