[QUOTE="talk2bks, post: 1453274, member: 275299"] [IMG]https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-ZcTlh8H6ih8/UGYhi41SvnI/AAAAAAAAA1s/fuR7gFoCfRI/s287/Screen+shot+2012-09-28+at+5.07.27+PM.png[/IMG] I noticed today that there is a "shared" computer on the sidebar. It is giving me an IP address that is not inside my house. 1. I've changed my WIFI password using WPA, 2. I've deactivated WIFI 3. I've turned off all computers in my house 4. I've unplugged all ethernet cables except the one going straight into my mac. 5. I've ran antivirus software. The only thing that gets rid of the computer is if I turn off all file sharing in my firewall. But that blocks everything else like dropbox and skype. The IP address is not my house but it is in my city. I've called my Internet provider and they say it has nothing to do with them. What do I do? [/QUOTE]
