this is really the ONLY way to properly deal with such a situation. once 
you're security has been compromised in this manner, it is extremeley 
difficult to down-right impossible to regain control of the system without a 
reinstall... it's also much faster (in case you were thinking about saving 
time =)

just back-up your configurations and your data (if you don't already have such 
things), reinstall the system, carefully examine your configs before putting 
them back, make sure you aren't using any passwords that are the same, and 
this time harden the system properly.
