I'm just gonna throw this out there since I have never seen this either,
but has your system's security been compromised?  Usually stuff like that
comes from someone running something you don't know about.  Especially
given that it's running as root (and I have never heard of a system-level
program like that), might be something you want to check into.

Just a thought, it could be something benign too...
