Has anybody else had an issue of random photos being downloaded? I keep getting random photos in my "downloads" folder. Sometimes it's a picture or even a logo. I recognized a couple of the logos but the photos I've never seen before. They are NOT pictures I have accidentally downloaded while Internet browsing. So I ask, is this and issue with 2.3.4 or possibly a security issue with the Vivid, streams getting crossed on ATT network?? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
 
I have never had this happen.Is it still happening?I don't think it is any sort of security issue though.I would try cleaning my cache,browsing history,and cookies.Delete all the images and restart your phone and see if it keeps happening.

I have had this happen on several of my android phones. I believe it maybe cached images from email when you choose to download the images.
 
Thanks for the info guys. It hasn't happened recently. At least not since I switched over to K-9 Mail. Not sure if that is just a coincidence, but the problem has stopped for now.
