When I started up my computer a few days ago, the My Computer folder opened automatically. When I looked at it, my CD Rom drive had been selected. It only happened once. When I did scans with Norton Internet Security and Housecall, they didn't find anything. I did a scan with Spybot and it found IGetNet, but from what I read, this shouldn't cause that. Should I be concerned?
