Every so often and often randomly, the AV program I have that monitors the incoming connection to my MacBook from a network connection scans something related to Google Earth. When I look in the Recent Activities log, I find the scan and found that it scanned a volume that I cannot see in Finder, but it definitely relates to Google Earth. Why in the heck is it doing this? It doesn't do this on my Mac mini, so why on my MacBook? I went through the program's settings to find anything and nothing turned up relating to any auto scans that scans this volume that I cannot find. The program does scan when a volume is inserted (disc drive, USB or network connected), but why is it scanning a volume that I cannot find?
The program (hold your breath) is Norton Anti-Virus, provided for Active Duty military personnel (my Dad) and I only have it to scan for anything that might harm a Windows computer (I have a Windows laptop) and to monitor incoming network connections for anything that might harm Mac OS X.
