the suspect PHP files section at the start. I havn't been able to find a file like that, and when running chkrootkit under expert mode, I wasn't able to find a path to this file.

How could I find out where this is coming from?

Boot a live cd that has chkrootkit and run it from there. If it is possible to check the non-running system that is... I've never tried it.

You mean the line that starts with "GIF87a"? That is the beginning string for a GIF file. All the "junk" after that is the ascii representation of an image.

Any idea on how to track it down, and why chkrootkit would think it is a suspect PHP file?
