I am getting a ton of these...
Here's what ls -l /proc/3147/exe  says
lrwxrwxrwx    1 apache   apache          0 Nov 16 15:56 /proc/3147/exe ->
/usr/bin/perl

When I do netstat -nap I get:
tcp        0      0 131.x.x.x:44160       72.14.x.x:80 ESTABLISHED -
tcp        0      0 131.x.x.x:44161       72.14.x.x:80 ESTABLISHED -
tcp        0      0 131.x.x.x:44162       72.14.x.x:80 ESTABLISHED -

The ip points to google...

And these appeared in the /tmp folder:
