Just to clear this up (I'm starting to worry about using too much bandwidth here), this has never happened. Your own circuit, after all, has the same exposure, so you should take ESD precautions to safeguard that. The Atmel MCUs have decent ESD protection and the edges of the ICE-Cube, where you grasp it, have ground plane on both sides. One other customer was anxious about this so I made him a custom ICE-Cube with epoxy encapsulation over the top (it's already on the bottom).
