Interesting - are you doing anything further to document, report and ask the reason for this??? First, I thought to myself how could have that popup happened WITHOUT physical (or virtual) access - could have been some other USB device; either physical or virtual there, too... or???

And if someone did access DATA, how else can we tell - we could read thru the logs if the time was specific enough.

So - are you gonna drop it, continue to use the service or act???
