From yesterday, working on my Ubuntu 14.04 LTS notebook I noticed that the system is making screenshots automatically without my interaction at different time intervals. "Save screenshot" window appear every time.

Is it a virus or someone spying me?

I tried to find an answer already but it seems that no one ever had a problem like me.

It is annoying, I agree. But the solution is simple enough.

Go to System settings->Keyboard->Shortcuts. You will find a whole group of shortcuts associated with Screenshots. Simply disable all active shortcuts.

Hope that helps.
