Virus, Worm on Linux or what is it?

Sorry for the previous mail - I sent it unintentionally unfinished. So here comes it finished:

I got five of the following mails "back" (I didn't send them).

I think either I have a Virus/Worm on MY system and in that case I think it would have to be my Linux box (and I can't believe that) or somebody else in the list must be the one.

Can anybody tell me something about that to solve the mystery? I mean, do I have to clean my system up? And if then I would like to FIND that Virus/Worm before removing it.

Martin

Maybe it is a combination of the heat problem and a too low voltage

I think it's mostly heat. I've currently got the door open, it's freezing in here, and my computer's rock stabily ripping a DVD to avi. CPU temperature is at 48C right now. If a Tagan 480W PSU (and one with very good reviews I might add) isn't capable of handling a 2 year old system, Athlon XP2000+ with radeon 9000 AIW card, then there's a serious problem I think.


I don't actually know whether you can use two or more PSU in one and the
same box (I still have to check that for myself), but if this is
possible it might be part of the solution beside the point to get the
air better circulating inside your box for better cooling characteristics.


Using two or more PSUs is not a good thing. The voltages of those two PSUs will never be exactly the same, so you get internal power leakage (don't know the exact term for it in English I'm afraid). I wouldn't recommend it. As said though: a good 480W PSU should be more than enough for a system like mine.

Regards,

Pieter

I meant to use another PSU with the additional drives. Since they are
connected only through the datacables it doesn't really matter that the
voltages aren't exactly the same (I think). I think I will try it (or at
least research on that) myself some time.

I have a system with two CPU's which are 76°C to 77°C "warm" (always),
if I can trust gkrellm and actually the BIOS too. So 48°C shouldn't be a
problem at your side (I guess).

However, I need to sleep now!

Good luck
Martin
