My wireless (ar928x chipset w/bluetooth, ath9k driver) has some issues with range. The range is better in Windows. The Linux driver shuts down the Windows driver. When I tried some basic commands to check out what was going on in a fresh install of Jaunty 9.04, a script executed leaving below set of entries in my Bash History. My bash history is attached, leading period deleted. This happened without my consent, and I felt it was invasive. I tried to figure out what triggered it, and could not repeat it. The script printed out the following lines when I hit return accidentally while typing the "sudo iwlist modul" command.

I do not pirate software, nor do I know of any company that does. I am not interested in business software, and did not solicit this. This is really kind of creepy. Will someone please help me work out the issues with my atheros drivers so I can delete my Vista partition? This is really too much. I would really like constructive, practical answers.
