Got caught looking; opinions please

There's a very pretty girl at work (well she's not a "girl", she's been working there for thirteen years so must be in her thirties). There was a staff meeting there a few weeks ago and she caught me giving her a quick glance during it.
She looked away straight away. I didn't stare her out, it was very quick but I was a little p***ed off with myself afterwards 'cause I should have resisted the temptation. It's not easy though, she is smokin hot. I'm sure she is used to it.
I've only been working there ten months and I don't work with her, she works in a completely different part of the building but I have bumped into her occasionally in the corridor. I expected her to be a bit stand-offish with me after she caught me but she has been quite the opposite. She gives me a big smile and always says hello. I don't know why, I've never worked with her on anything, I think I sent her an email once and I might have spoken to her on the phone once as well.
She blanks me if she passes me when she is with her friends (she is usually gabbing to them anyway). It's kind of funny the way she goes "Hi!" and gives me this massive smile every time we meet, I'm amazed she doesn't dislocate here face. I don't think there is anything in it, I'd say she is just friendly to everyone. It kind of makes me a bit uncomfortable to be honest.
But usually if a pretty girl is checked out by a guy she gives him no encouragement as we know what some fellas are like. But it got me thinking, do attractive women get annoyed if a guy checks them out or do they like it?
I suppose it depends on what the guy looks like.

Personally, speaking on behalf of every single female on the planet, or maybe not because I might not be attractive...

Scratch that.

READ THE CHARTER. We don't appreciate random threads asking for the opinion on women as a whole. I can move it to PI, or RI or AH, but it won't be open for discussion in tLL.

Women are not of a "hive mind" mentality. Personally I would hate anybody looking at me, but others would love it. We are not all the same.
