First rootkit test passed with flying colors

So, one of those e1ete haxxors visited my site this morning.

As I had left the appearance of a bit of a door open, they no doubt figured they had scored a machine. Their rootkit download worked (well, it downloaded) and they probably even got to see it apparently executing. But oddly, it didn't open anything, since the machine they were on was a vm running off a nat box running in a private little hell that goes nowhere. After shutting down and restoring the vm from the most recent backup, I have a nice little record of the attempt, and I'm right back where I was before. Sweet. You know, if these bozos put their efforts into something productive, we could get somewhere. Seems unlikely.
