Dear FreeBSD,

    How can I best recover from, and defend myself from, a hacker
who breaks into my system and runs a program called psybnc
without my permission?  I think he is using my system as a front/slave.

    For now, I have killed psybnc, deleted the directory of stuff
that he put in, and changed my password.  Is that any good?

    Can there be a real vaccination built in to FreeBSD?
