Most likely the reboot will clear out user mode worms, since they
don't actually compromise the system, just the user. The worm would
have needed to compromise teh system itself to write any startup
files. Though many bad applications wonk permissions on
/Library/StartupItems. All user files should be scrutinized so that
they don't have any login startup items that will restart it.
Thanks for the advice, Dan. As I mentioned to a couple of folks
off-list, it would be politically difficult to take down the server
and wipe/install, although it could be done if really necessary.
You don't need to do this, just find your last known good backup and
restore from that.
For now, simply removing the build of PsyBNC and the file stuck in
/tmp seems to have cleared up the problem.
Probably gets cleared on a reboot, being /tmp ;)
