    Nslookup is a tool used to query name servers to find out what IP address is associated with a host name.
    I would need more information on what you mean by "popped up" to help further. Perhaps you could take a screenshot (Shitft + PrintScreen, then paste into Paint and save as .PNG) and attach it here so I could see what you are talking about?

    I don't have the original screen, sorry.

    I'm wondering if someone was trying to hack into my e-mail?

      Nslookup would have nothing to do with your email. How often does the screen appear? did you only see it once? What did it look like? what were you doing when it appeared?
