Security Warning - Listening on Device ??

[Usulsuspct]

Below is the contents of a KWrited window which appears on my desktop every morning when I get up. I am running Mandrake 8.0, I am wondering what does all this mean? I have used Mandarke before and have not gotten this message?

Well I don't know what the first half of your messages mean...but on my Mandrake machine I've seen the second part.

There's a security/audit script that runs every week (I think its every week, maybe everynight?) and if you stay logged on as root, you see the output in whatever terminal you left open. If no one is logged, I usually don't see the output unless I got into one of the logfiles (can't remember which right now).

That second part tells you which files anyone can write to.
