Security Issue

[Walton Hoops]

Yeah I too noted that it's about the right size to be a DVD image, and I do
use that server for file storage, but those files aren't web accessible,
only through SSH, and I was asleep at the time :-). One of the first things
I did was to double check that I wasn't still hosting an Ubuntu install DVD
on my web server (I did for a short time), and made sure that all my torrent
client wasn't running.
Good thinking though!

4 GB of updates? Is that realistic? Yes, it should at least be ruled out
first.

To the OP: BTW, 4 GB is fairly close to a typical DVD image. Does that
ring any bell?
