Yeah, or maybe lead aprons, pants, and facemasks to protect you from the radiation. If you put a cup of water in front of the mouse and double click a couple of times, does it start to boil?

LOL. As bizarre is that is, I've actually had something similar happen with a cordless mouse/keyboard combo. It happens more than you think.

BTW, read unSpawn's security post at the top of the forum or it's very likely that you will get hacked for real. In fact it would be pretty trivial, considering that you have X wide open:

6000/tcp open X11

If you need to run services, especially local ones, then restrict access using a firewall. Having quasi-vulnerable services like rpc, samba-shares, and lpd (printer) open to the world is really dangerous. So now that you know what it feels like to get hacked (without actually getting hacked), use that as your motivation to lock your box down or at least make it less of a target.

Thing of it is I did act on everything everone told me, short of the format advice.

I didn't see anything in any of the log files, or the commands I was asked to run. I didnt want to clutter the thread up with pages and pages of them, I poored over them for hours all day long. Googled the life out of myself and even booted with knoppix, and and checked most everything I could think of and then even looked in places that wouldn't be logical to look in. Also ran nmap from another machine.

I couldn't provide the info everyone was looking for cause I just couldn't find it.

I do thank everyone for their time. I search and read here quite a bit, so I rarely need to ask, most everything I need has been asked and answered already.

This was one of the times I just couldn't find anm answer anywhere.

Thanks again for your time and patience.

I guess pretty much the reason I couldn't figure it out, or find anything at all, was becasue there was nothing to find.

X isn't available to anyone who isn't behind my firewall/router. My router blocks access to everything but http and ftp.

Going to read the pinned topic now thanks.

I guess that nmap output was from inside your LAN then. Cool. Sounds like you're ahead of the game already

Absolutelty the nmap scan was from inside my network. Scanning from outside on a neighbors Pc reveals nothing but my ftp and http.

I am certainly not an expert in securioty and I know I have allot to read, but I always block everything, and always try to shutdown things I think I will not need.

I am pressed for a little sleep time right now, so I downloaded Bastille linux, from one of the links provided here Im going to install it tonight and tinker with it some. I will delve into more security issues tommorrow.

Thanks all.
