So it first showed with Libreoffice not opening files. On further
investigation and a little internet searching I tried opening it
from the command line (soffice) and it seemed to be trying to access
a website from Turkey. I installed ClamTK and scanned and the first scan started to show files from my recently hacked and backed up website... then it shut down the computer. A second scan showed lots of potential Trojan type infections, but not the ones originally shown... and at that point I decided to do a backup of everything(!?*) and do a clean re-install of Xubuntu 18.04LTS... I'm a little anxious of what this virus was trying to do, or what information it might have relayed to it's perpetrator, but finding a file in the home folder entitled .sudo-as-admin-successful (or similar) was slightly concerning! I do have some sensitive information that would fall under the GDPR. Not sure if I can be sure this was not compromised... Ahh! I'm very much out of my depth. Any help will be very gratefully received! Thanks to all. Anthony
