Sadly, I can tell you that I've had similar experiences.  When they break 
into your system, they'll change the ls and ps binaries so that they don't 
display certain files or processes that they are trying to hide from you. 
In my experience, those very attempts to conceal the breakin are sometimes 
of such poor quality that you detect the bad ls or bad ps binary way 
before you would have noticed the other stuff they were doing.

I keep copies of ls and ps binaries on my system so that I can use them if 
I think I've been cracked.
