New user here, I'm showing "your-w92*******" I blanked out the rest, with a little monitor icon under "SHARED" in my finder? Any clue as to what it is and how I can get rid of it? If I right click I only get Open or Get Info as options. If I click Open I get "Connection Failed". If I click on Get Info it displays "PC Server" under kind. I did try to get my MBP to print in my PCs HP printer (unsucessfully) using cups. So I don't know if that had anything to do with it. I'd just like to delete it but don't know how.

Thanks in advance for any tips :)
 
You can go to Finder > Preferences > Sidebar and uncheck items under the "Shared" heading if you won't want to show shared items. But I don't know how to stop it from showing any one particular shared item.
 
Also maybe try, in the Finder...

Go > Connect to Server

Click on the little Clock icon in the upper-right corner of the window that pops up and "Clear Recent Servers".

Sorry, I don't know how to find this "Go > Connect to Server" can you please tell me? Thx
