Gmail Detects and Warns You If Someone Else Is Using Your Account. One of the nice things about Google is that it is always innovating. Without fanfare, a security button has been added to GMail that tells you the date, time and IP address of the accesses to your GMail account. If a strange IP address shows up (like from the Ukraine), GMail will pop up with a warning message. Hopefully, this will enable you to change your password to avoid further intrusions before the bad guys. Of course, nothing is completely safe in the cloud; however, like a good burglar alarm system, you can set up your Internet life so that clanging alarm bells go off if an intruder invades, and you hopefully can protect yourself.
