This morning I can in to work to find my quid box down, after some investigation into it I discovered that my "/usr" partition is 100% full. So I went to see what was filling up my hard drive, only to find out the my entire "/usr/bin" directory is being copied to the "/usr/bin/mh" directory over and over again! right now I have a direcotry like "/usr/bin/mh/mh/mh/mh/mh/mh/mh/mh/mh/mh/mh/mh/mh/mh/mh/mh/mh" give or take a few.
Does anyone know what may be causing this....A VIRUS??? If anyone has any idea on how this may be happening please let me know.

Have you checked your running processes to see if you can spot the culprit?

Guess it's a little too late in the day now.

Kill whatever process is doing it. Looks like someones gotten into your PC.
