Is this something...or nothing?

I could be reading things into this that just aren't there, but I've just received an email from Sony thanking me for registering my player. Thing is, I registered this at least 4 or 5 years ago.

Then around a minute or so after opening the email, I got a small pop up from the sys tray telling me it was installing the usb driver software. It then said it was searching for the correct driver but couldn't find one.

It this just coincidence/a glitch or might the email have caused the driver installation thing to start?

Pc is scanning with Malwarebyte at the minute but so far nothing is showing up.

imho

For the last 4 days i have been getting 2 emails a day from Sony. I did register with them about 5 years ago. Not heard from them in years and now i am getting all these emails.
I clicked on link that says unsubscribe and that didnt work !
Didnt have a pop up about installing a driver.

imho

Yip, me too. The pop up thing mustn't have been related.
