Subject: kwrited security warning network
From: rkaraff at emory.edu

Package:           kwrite
Version:           KDE 2.1.2 
Severity:          normal
Installed from:    Mandrake RPMs
Compiler:          Not Specified
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

Mandrake 8.0 installed on 200MHz box, using adaptec scsi adapter/scsi hard drives/cd-rom, 2 nics, dsl.  linux boots fine, login as root or any other user ok.  if i don't logout for many hours, kwrited takes over the cpu and displays a security warning about certain folders/files that have no owner and are at risk for security leaks.  kwrited monopolizes cpu and no other app can work.  can hear hard drive chugging away.  solutions so far:  reset box, which of course linux hates.  try to stop kwrited (xkill or normal) takes 30 minutes waiting for mouse/keyboard commands to go through.  if i logout before kwrited takes over, all is well.  solutions?
