HELP - mySQL question

My server is running FreeBSD + apache + php + mySQL. Recently, I keep getting error messages like this:
Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (61)

When I check the memory and cpu usage, there are a couple hundreds of MB ram free. But the cpu idle is 0.0%! And mysqld is taking 95% or more of the cpu time. The server was running well and there is no new scripts installed and no significant increase in traffic. Anyone can provide some insight about what went wrong here? I don't know if it's related, but the problem started just a couple days after the recent internet worm attack.

Any help please? Thanks!
