Okay, peeps, here's the deal.

Macbook pro in sig, running latest SL, iTunes 10.5.

I had just logged out of my account, and logged back in. I opened up iTunes and a download for some random paid app started by itself.

Now, I did not install this app by myself, I never click on it, in fact I was never in the app store in the first place when it started, I just noticed the download starting in the sidebar. I was never asked for my password. I do no want the app. My credit card has been charged.

What's more, automatic downloads are turned off, same goes for my iPhone, so logically, it wasn't bought on another computer, because I would only have received the receipt in my e-mail, and not the app.

I changed my AppleID password, and also removed my credit card information, and have already contacted Apple Express Lane.

Anyone have any idea if there is anything more I can do? Or what caused the random download? Could it be possibly a software glitch?
