I installed Electrum this morning on a bootable USB drive running Ubuntu 12.04.  During the install (through terminal commands) or should i say at the end of installing i was prompted to create my first wallet. I did this through the Electrum GUI prompt. Electrum proceded to create the first wallet and seed. Along with the seed it generated five receiving addresses which are the ones I see when the GUI window is open....however....I still hade my terminal window open during this process and in the terminal it showed the five receiving addresses plus three others. These other three do not show up in the Electrum GUI window anywhere i can find. I'm trying to figure out what those additional three addresses are? anyone shed some light on this? It was just a test wallet and I dont plan on using it but would feel better knowing its not a compromise.

Unless I'm mistaken those 'three' addresses would be your change addresses - you should be able to find them under the 'Receive' tab and click on the small white triangle next to 'Change'.

Ah thank you! Those are them. I'm new to using Electrum, didn't notice the drop down triangle.
