John,
  Do a show version. How long has the router been up? What's the config
register set at? Do you have your normal config (other than the
hosthame) or is it a blank config, as if it booted without any config
(config register 0x2142, may be listed as 0x42 as well).

Some one could certainly break into your router if you have easily guessed
passwords.
