After a download yesterday my computer crashed.
I updated today and checked for rootkits. I found a packet sniffer



eth0: PACKET SNIFFER(/sbin/dhclient[3966])


How can I remove this?

I think it might be a false positive. Try checking with rkhunter, because it gives fewer false positives. To download rkhunter, and for more detailed info on how to use it, See this site



If it come up clean, then you have reason for concern.



Try this as well:




  1. rkhunter --check


  2. update


  3. sudo rkhunter --propupd


  4. rkhunter --check
