I've been hacked too :(



Just because there are a few sendmail processes running does not 
necessarily mean that you've been hacked. Check your log 
files:/var/log/mail. You may have been receiving some email at the time. 
However, port 25 is one which is used by hackers. Also, check the logs on 
your firewall.
