Question

I have just installed and configured CSF and I am getting 100s of spam emails containing this message.

lfd on localhost: Suspicious process running under user www-data

Time:    Wed May 23 01:05:52 2012 +0200

Account: www-data
Uptime:  118 seconds


Executable:

/usr/lib/apache2/mpm-prefork/apache2


Command Line (often faked in exploits):

/usr/sbin/apache2 -k start


Network connections by the process (if any):

Does anyone know how to fix?
