Anyone know anything about a known virus or other wrappers adding hosts to your 
route table?  Earlier this week I asked about my corrupt route table but no 
reply.  I now have found (after hacking away at my machine daily) several 
entries in my messages log:

Nov 14 13:50:06 Sandman portsentry[11928]: attackalert: SYN/Normal scan from 
host: ms1.primatex.com.tw/211.23.141.22 to TCP port: 111
Nov 14 13:50:06 Sandman portsentry[11928]: attackalert: Host 211.23.141.22 has 
been blocked via wrappers with string: "ALL: 211.23.141.22"
Nov 14 13:50:06 Sandman portsentry[11928]: attackalert: Host 211.23.141.22 has 
been blocked via dropped route using command: "/sbin/route add -host 211.23.1
41.22 gw 127.0.0.1"

I have been getting these since mid October and seems to take a couple weeks to 
kill your route table.

BTW: I'm on the @home network.
