Oh I forgot to mention that I also installed chkrootkit and rkhunter on this system. Chkrootkit did not find anything. rkhunter found some hidden directories which investigation on various forums seems to indicate is normal for Ubuntu. the directories are: /etc/.pwd.lock /dev/.static /dev/.udev /dev/.initramfs /dev/.initramfs-tools Thank you!
As to that I can say that those alerts aren't a sign you've been hacked. I get those same type messages from rkhunter on my debian boxes. Ubuntu being an offshoot of debian, I would think that's probably par for the course and nothing to worry about.
