[Pkg-games-ubuntu] [Bug 606710] Re: Process with no name

[Majal Mirasol]

1) Yes, this still happens.
2) I don't have PlayOnLinux installed

I posted a question here for this:
https://superuser.com/questions/741564/process-with-no-name-a-possible-linux-rootkit

Can you please help to confirm if this is a bug, or a rootkit?

Title:
  Process with no name

Status in “gnome-system-monitor” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-system-monitor

  This probably has nothing to do with system monitor, but that is where I see the problem.
  I have one process that has no name, its process ID keeps incrementing (about 100/second) hovering over the process name gives a tiny yellow box with no text in it. I can't kill it because its process ID changes too fast.
  I'm going to reboot my computer now and hope it goes away.
  This behaves as if it is trying to hide, so I'm going to flag this as a security vulnerability.
