chkrootkit reporting packet sniffer?

Hi All,

For the past 3 days chkrootkit is reporting the following:
Code: 
/etc/cron.daily/chkrootkit:
eth0: PACKET SNIFFER(/usr/bin/tcptraceroute[20024])
I do have a cron job that is running tcptraceroute every 10 minutes. Is this a false alarm? Should I be concerned? If it is a false alarm, how can I tell chkrootkit to ignore it?
