Memory says there were several serious security bugs fixed in
2.0.32 but not in earlier kernels, not least the F00F bug...
You might like to upgrade the kernel to at least 2.0.32,
preferably 2.0.33 - not hard, I've upgraded several remotely,
mainly in either the USA or Australia (and I live in Scotland).
Best wishes from Riley.
