Since I upgraded rkhunter to the lastest version I have also these  
warnings nearly every day.
So I looked at /usr/bin/rkhunter what these suspicious files could be and  
tested it on my machine with

r...@algol:~# lsof -wnlP -F n| grep '^n/' | sed -e 's/^n//' | sort | uniq  
| grep "${SUSP_FILES}"

What I found is

/usr/bin/system-tools-backends
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.12/jre/lib/fonts/LucidaSansRegular.ttf
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.12/jre/lib/i386/client/libjvm.so
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.12/jre/lib/i386/libawt.so
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.12/jre/lib/i386/libjava.so
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.12/jre/lib/i386/libverify.so
/usr/lib/libavahi-client.so.3.2.4
/usr/lib/libavahi-common.so.3.5.0
/usr/lib/libavahi-glib.so.1.0.1
/usr/lib/libxcb-xlib.so.0.0.0
/var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket

All normal processes.
The problem is that the suspicious file test greps for strings like ava,  
xl or sytem, strings
that occur in a lot of very normal processes that uses java, avahi or  
every program that uses xlib.

Is there a way to finetune these tests? In the current way it is IMHO very  
useless wih all these false positives.
So I'll disable the test now.

Greetings
Jens
