I am running Fedora 16 and just installed Dropbox from their website. After dismissing the successful installer, I received a 'run as root' authentication popup trying to run the command 'sh /tmp/tmp40RGAW'. I am a little suspicious as it doesn't seem to be initiated by an action on my part.
Here are the relevant files:
/tmp/tmp40RGAW:
#!/bin/sh -e
cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.bak &&
cat /tmp/tmp9nzubR > /etc/fstab &&
mount -o remount /
/tmp/tmp9nzubR:

Does anybody know what's going on here? Is this something needed by Dropbox?
Thanks
