This will help answer the *hack3d* question but if it is the 'ole formmail
exploit, you may not be hack3d.  Their just using the script to send mail.  As
root, type: locate formmail (there is a formail on the server so make sure to
spell formmail, with two m's)

Should tell you where it is, delete it...
