Hi guys, I have question I'm hoping someone can answer.

I noticed in Finder that I have a Shared connection/folder that is trying to connect to something. The connection is named "your-049....". Does anyone know what the heck this is? I never set up any type of connection or home network. I have an iPhone and a Dell desktop, but I haven't ever done anything with the desktop as far as networking them together. And the the iPhone, I installed an app called iTap to use my phone as a trackpad. Could this be the problem? Could someone tell me how to stop this from trying to connect? Is it a hack?

Thanks for any help you can give.

P.S. the connection always seems to fail.
