Yes, I did finally update this. This time two separate video’s to attempt to keep the boredom viewing times to a reasonable limit.
This is being done on a Ubuntu 10.04 machine and the USB drive is a 2GB Kingston. Its older, but more than sufficient for the job.
Part 1:
Part 2:
I hope this helps anyone having issues with this process. If you have any questions feel free to comment.

Since I made the post for 10.10 here, I decided to update it with the process for 11.04. Honestly it’s not any different.

Well it has been a while but not all is lost. Most recently i was quite surprised to hear that many people have problems with this. Since it is pretty simple I figured it was a good opportunity to explain the process. Sure Natty is out now, but I figure many folks will still find this relevant.

Well it’s good to know that updates bring change.
Many times change brings about a better way of doing things. Other times it may bring change to old familiar ways and we may not like them. Take the moving of the Gnome window buttons for minimize, maximize, and close.
The latest version of Ubuntu decided to move these buttons to the left side of the window. This isn’t so strange. Many OS’s over the years have had the close button on the top left, but rarely the other buttons. I understand that Microsoft Windows has set the position on the right and when I adopted Windows as a OS I quickly became quite familiar with this method and today, take for granted their position since both KDE and Gnome Desktops for Linux did the same thing. However as of Ubuntu 10.04 it’s now on the left.

Well it appears they were not really screensavers or themes after all. Instead they were DDoS related Malware.
The Gnome ‘waterfall’ Screensaver http://jamesfriesen.net/762

A quick fix for these can be found on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1349801 and the gory details are http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1349678
This command below should remove the offending scripts for an infected machine. DO NOT run this unless you know you are infected.
sudo rm -f /usr/bin/Auto.bash /usr/bin/run.bash /etc/profile.d/gnome.sh index.php run.bash && sudo dpkg -r app5552
