What were you trying to do?
ps -elf
What's wrong:
I found several processes called "runfactor" and "factoring" owned by root.
Apparently these have something to do with an RSA problem set...
What should have happened:
They shouldn't have been there!
Please describe any relevant documentation references:

Hi,
Sorry you saw this problem, it was as a result of someone hacking public
workstations to run a long job.
It is being taken care of as I type this.
Please feel free to report other unual things you notice.
