DVD drive keeps popping open by itself
I have a Dell Inspiron 1525 that has a TSSTcorp DVD+-RW TS-L632H ATA drive.

The damn thing keeps popping open at random times, I'm not sure if it's because of a sensitive trigger or if there is anything I can do about it.

Suggestions?

Do a full virus sweep, and just make sure your firewall is up and running as it should be - this is quite a funny prank among friends who know how to access your computer.

Please let us know how you get on and if nothing is discovered please tell us which anti-virus and firewall you are running. (This may end up in the XP/Vista forums depending on your OS)
