sorry typos amended....




    
Guys, apache's cpu usage is hitting
100% sometimes ( to such an extent that its 
very noticeable) 
on a box ( 2gb ram)  with just 8 users or so. This newver happended before.

i m getting this when i
run 'top'. The worrying thing is seeing the word 'atack' 
under
command
