thanks for the lengthy response. good to know i'm not the only one! mind
you, i *know* what exploit they used and i'm kicking myself for not fixing
it (i fixed it on my raQ4s).

i never use the GUI backup services. i use the RaQbackup script by Daniel
Neuhaus. any idea if this is affected?

it's gonna be a long night - past 9pm UK time and i was supposed to be out
watching bands about 2hrs ago. AND my colo can't rebuild until tomorrow
morning.
