Crazy Solidworks (2008) happening

I was working on my new HP mobile workstation (vista) last night and
suddenly - Solidworks (2008 SP2.1) turns on and starts "dissecting"
parts. I was not using solidworks and the parts were not mine as I
don't have any of my own on the system yet.

It was the craziest thing and made my computer seem like it was
possessed. There is a button shown to "Stop Dissection" and after
clicking it, Solidworks freaks out a little more then crashes.

And now here is interesting part - I have a coworker with exactly the
same computer (bought at on the same PO) and he was also working at
home last night and experienced the same issue at approximately the
same time.

Anyone have any idea what this is? My coworker said this is the third
time for him, first for me.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

What does Dissection do for us?

 

Dissection is a process which searches the contents of SolidWorks
files to 'extract' data in order to make Features, Sketches, Blocks,
Tables and Views available for Drag and Drop reuse during the
development of new parts and drawings.

I totally agree (do not know about the JB part)

Does this have something to do with that searching / indexing service SW forcing us to use?
