msec

How might msec have gotten toggled on without my doing?

Strange that it only happened on one machine, not the other two PCLOS boxes...

msec is ran by a cron job.   /etc/cron.hourly/msec

hmmm, heres what happened:

a message popped up saying msec had done an diff check. I have never seen this kind of message pop up before and I had no idea what the heck msec was. So Google it up and found out. So I ran msecgui and it asked me for root password. I punch it in and untick the check box to activate msec.

So I went to my other PC and ran msecgui... no root password was required. Plot thickens... msec was not activated...

So thats waht resulted in my original question... I know I didn't activate msec because I had know idea it even existed before the pop up told me so. So how could it have changed state?

thanks for all you guys do
