Hello, first off, I'm very new to this OS and was fairly new with tiger, so I apologize for my ignorance.

Every once in a while when I click on Finder Icon, I would notice other computers would show up under shared. There are only three other Computers on my network and all are Windows PCs. So I right click on the name of the user, and under Kind, if would say Mac Server, but I wouldn't be able to get anywhere else.

I quickly got into my router and checked for other users on my wireless network and there were no other users. My SSID is not broadcasted and the listing of Wireless MAC IDs was blank. I even shut down wireless for a while and it still occurs.

I'm thinking this is sorta like the sharing that iTunes has, I could be wrong. Just wondering if anyone can clear this up for me, any help on this is greatly appreciated.
