How about coming at this from the other side. Do you recognize the business address the Google map went to. Maybe it's some tricky spam. If they're marketing something, it might have somehow gotten into your machine earlier and finally came out.

Or someone nearby Bluetoothed into your cell phone to print and bug you.

You don't have wireless turned on, right?
