I found suspicious looking files on a Redhat 7.1 Linux server earlier

Oh ya.  Maybe more than once.

According to an rpm -V, all kinds of binaries have been changed: ps,
top, netstat, ifconfig, ...

I copied a good version of ps in and found the two afb processes
running.

Anyone know about this hack, what afb does and/or how they usually get
in?

Chkrootkit might be able to diagnose your problems.  I'd hit
http://www.google.com, and http://isc.incidents.org/ and see what pops
up.
