weird files in root
I've just noticed. I have covered my shares and the NAS' name. Shall I be concerned??

wow, that's not good.
My SSH password is long and complex. Is there anything I can check? Logs or anything?
And how do I delete those files now, they are refusing to delete. I tried by FTP and terminal. I cannot type the name so I typed rm -i * but the system comes up with an error message.
Edit: someone is definitely trying to getting in...
