You may safely disregard the "INIT" line. It comes up now and again but
is entirely harmless. The "booby traps" line I have never seen, but it
sure as hell does not sound good.

Is this box connected to a network or the Internet? Is it firewalled?
Did you check the logs? Is it even remotely possible that it has been
cracked?

Cheers,
