Hi, i am a relatively new mac user and i just came across a PC server that is apparently being shared with my mac called "viruscity".

The name alone makes me nervous, so im guessing it cant be anything good coming from this. I have a PC in my house but this one is not mine. How do i get rid of this?

Is the Viruscity pc in your house too? I'd be nervous to say the least. Check your network settings by opening system preferences, Network and look for mention of this rouge connection
 
Are you using wireless or wired to connect to your home network?

If it is wireless, update/change your router's password to something strong asap.
