RE: ATTACK RESPONSES id check returned root

["McCammon, Keith" <Keith.McCammon () eadvancemed com>]

Any payload that contains the string "uid=0(root)" will cause this to fire.  Most of the times that I've caught it, 
it's been because someone visited a web site with some type of UNIX tutorial, handbook, etc.  That's generally the 
first thing that you want to look for.
