[QUOTE="Campylobacter, post: 1461029, member: 278760"] Hi Forum, Please help: Recently purchased an iMac - Lurvely kit! On Mountain Lion. Have a pw protected wifi network. On finder I have my printer showing, my laptop shows but also an unknown PC named: ek94475c05 Finder says I'm connected as guest but I see no files or any other info. Could this pc be connected to my network and being malicious? Nothing suspicious to report so far (1 week) although after having turned my Mac off for several hours it randomly switched itself on for no apparent reason. I can't seem to be able to omit this PC from my shared list or drop it or ban it. How do I get it to go away and ensure my network is secure and not being hacked?? Thanks [/QUOTE]
