If ckkrootkit really did detect worms like Lupper, Lion
and Adore (as opposed to the false positives both programs
appear fond of generating) the user should take a close
look at the Debian release he is using.

My problem with software like this is that it gives the
impression of providing security over and above what the
normal updating procedure provides.
