REAL good suggestion!  Any specific recommendations as to what should be

It's a good idea to have a kit of such tools on a read-only
CD in advance of an incident like this, so that you have
tools you know you can trust -- that haven't been trojanned
-- ready to use.  It's rather like the instructions in a
snake-bite kit.  You want to be familiar with them *before*
Mr. Snake has his way with you.
