[cobalt-security] Possible scalper Worm



Hello!

Since a couple of days, and without any changes to the system or other
"suspect" activity, chkrootkit started occasionally reporting the following:

<-- snip -->
Chkrootkit detected the following changes on your server:

--------------------------------------------------------------------

+Checking `scalper'... Warning: Possible Scalper Worm installed

--------------------------------------------------------------------
<-- snip -->

As far as I know, scalper worm only infects FreeBSD based systems anyway? Is
there a need to pay particular attention to this warning?

Thank you,

Alain
