I'm sorry I didn't make myself more clear...
That much I knew, and thought I'd made clear when I pointed out that I
knew it was produced by gprof.
Does this mean that the site-owner is actually compiling something on
the machine? Seems impossible; they don't have root access. The
machine owner didn't compile anything; I didn't compile anything.
That's why I'm asking if this is a security issue.
Could it mean someone we don't know has gone into the box and compiled
things?
Jeff
