    I'm guessing, that the wwwpars account got hacked. Considering the fact, that so many processes were spawned, I'd say it is a mailer of some sort. You can check the file's content by doing:

    vi /home/wwwpars/public_html/anything

    or wherever the file is located. To make sure it doesn't start anymore, you can chmod it to 0 and chown it to root.

    That really looks strange. The process was executed locally instead of giving the full path and with so many forks.

    Try doing lsof -p 10526 (or whatever process it has now) to see what it is doing...
