Keys in notification area prompting change to privileges
Since reinstalling Ubuntu 9.10 and learning how to get the Notification Area working properly:
I've noticed an bunch-of-keys icon appearing intermittently in my notification area.
It appeared about 20 mins ago. I hovered the mouse over it and it generated the following text:
"Click on the icon to drop all elevated privileges"
I right-clicked on the icon, thinking I might learn something more about it. But it disappeared. No other messages were given.
It appeared again about five or ten minutes ago. I did not click on it. But it disappeared of its own accord after a minute or two.
What is this? Should I have clicked on it? What have I done? How can I get this bunch of keys under my control?
Should I be filing this as a UFO report instead of a question?
