O.P. Windows File Protection dialog coming up for no apparent reason
I'm maybe overly paranoid but I am wondering why would the Windows File Protection dialog come up for no apparent reason? I didn't install anything yesterday, or change any system files or whatnot, and today when I came on the pc I found the WFP dialog sitting on my screen. :/

Since I couldn't bothered to look for my Windows CD, I just accepted it to replace the files, but I am worried it might have been a very wrong decision. Though, my firewall (Comodo) or Kaspersky (anti-virus) haven't complained. I did a Spybot scan and that came up clean, too. I don't really think it's likely that I have some virus/spyware thing going on, but it bothers me that I can't think of a good reason for the WFP dialog popping up.

Please halp. :(
