I found the cronjob which keeps restarting the script: 

[root@venus /var/cron/tabs]# ls -l
total 12
-rw-------  1 root  wheel  3440 Aug 25 12:06 colin
-rw-------  1 root  wheel   240 Jul 28 23:49 www

[root@venus /var/cron/tabs]# cat www 
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE - edit the master and reinstall.

*/1 * * * * perl /tmp/tmpfile

I removed it, so now at least the script stops relaunching.

/tmp/tmpfile is of course the script.

In a subdirectory of tmp, there is a whole bunch of source code, all owned
by 'www':

/tmp/.,]# ls -l
