Email Authentication suddenly enabled?

I didn’t have any authentication options enabled for my account but today when I got up and logged in the email authentication was in effect: not exactly a ‘bad’ thing but given I didnt do it im a little perplexed. (Nothing seems to be missing and it would be very strange for a hacker to steal my account only to enable its security measures for me.)

Anyone know what would cause this?

That is certainly unusual! I am inquiring about this now. If you did not enable authentication, is there someone else who could access your account — perhaps a family member or friend — who may have done that?
