I have a question regarding system accounts if I seem a bit non oriented its because I am somewhat new to unix security issues well someone hacked into one of the system accounts using a root kit I was lead to believe but they got in as 
pid user 

pid              ttyp0    141.13.3.9       Wed Sep  5 06:09 - 06:11  (00:05)
