I was thinking of that. But to my uneducated eye entries in cron.d,
cron.daily, cron weekly and cron.monthly looked rather inoffensive. Or
is there something in the following lists which could be the offender?
Is there some other "source" of cron jobs? (anacrontab and crontab
only start the jobs in these directories.)

cron.daily:

0anacron, 5snort, apache, calendar, cfengine, dwww, exim, find,
logrotate, man-db, mgetty, modutils, netbase, netkit-inetd, standard,
sysklogd, tetex-bin, tripwire-1.2

cron.d:

anacron, exim, logcheck, postgresql, shaper, tiger

cron.weekly:

0anacron, apt-move, cfengine, cfingerd, cvs, dpkg-mountable, efax, htdig, lpr,
man2html, man-db, sysklogd

cron.monthly:

0anacron, rwhod, standard
