This is probably off-topic, but I have evidence that my machine has been hacked. When trying to access
CUPS I get a message that says in effect that it is a security issue and does not complete. This hack probably
occurred in the last 3 or 4 days, and I apologize for any messages sent to the list from the Linux partition--
I may have sent one or two before finding the situation. I am writing this from Windows (ugh!) after running
Avast Security on this partition. There is no AV software on the Linux partition, and I am having a terrible time
trying to get and install something along this line. The closest I came is Eset, which requires a 32-bit lib, which
I have found, and downloaded, but I'm not sure how to install it. (This is a 32-bit lib on a 64-bit file, somehow.
Eset will not let me proceed without this.) If someone would like to assist, I will open the Linux system, write
down as best I can what I am trying to do and then post it here in Windows, so as not to send any malware to
the list.
What evidence do you have of being hacked? -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.2 x86_64 at Telcontar)
