"remove "_i.fdt" files from everyone's dropbox and devices"
This alert popped up without provocation. I've not seen before. I selected cancel. What does the message indicate? Is there a security issue?

I DID NOT initiate any deletions from my dropbox.
YOU may not have, but something on your computer did. Applications you use create and delete files all the time. If you're using an application with files in your Dropbox, and that application creates others files while its in use, you may see messages like this one when the application deletes the files.
And what exactly is a i.fdt file?
No one here can answer that. It will be some type of file used by an application on your computer. Perhaps a temporary file. Look up the FDT file extension on Google and see what applications use it. See if any match what you use.
