1. Login to your server as root. (SSH)

2. Down load the chkrootkit.
Type: wget ftp://ftp.pangeia.com.br/pub/seg/pac/chkrootkit.tar.gz

3. Unpack the chkrootkit you just downloaded.
Type: tar xvzf chkrootkit.tar.gz

4. Change to new directory
Type: cd chkrootkit*

5. Compile chkrootkit
Type: make sense

6. Run chkrootkit
Type: ./chkrootkit

If it says "Checking `bindshell'... INFECTED (PORTS: 465)"
This is normal and it is NOT really a virus.
