How can I stop pop-ups saying "There is a problem logging on to server...You do not have permission..."., How can I stop pop-ups saying "There is a problem logging on to server...You do not have permission...".

I have a Mac Mini (early 2009) running OSX 10.8.1 on a Windows network that is driving me nuts.
Background
Typically, 6 or 7 computers are running (Windows 7, OSX 10.8.1 and Linux) on the network at any given point in time.   Network printers and hand helds (iphones, PlayBooks, etc.) are also connected.
The problem
If one specific Windows 7 desktop is running, a pop-up error message comes up frequently.  The eror message is: 
There was a problem connecting to the server "[Server name or IP]".    You do not have permission to access this server.
The pop-up sometimes refers to the device name and sometimes refers to the IP address of the desktop.
Oddities:
This does not occur on a MacBook Pro also running 10.8.1
The error message does not occur for other Windows computers on the network.  I have laptops running Windows 7 Professional that have never shown up on the error message..
Files on the problem desktop are easily accessible through [Finder].
Things I've tried to resolve the problem:
Ran software update - multiple times
Changed the destination drive for [Time Machine] and completed a backup
Cleared the "Recent Server" list from the [Finder][Go][Connect to Server] screen
Attempted to demount the desktop in [Finder].  The option was not available
Disconnected from the desktop in [Finder].  This did not resolve the problem and the desktop was automatically showing on the [Shared] list in [Finder] after the next reboot.
Booted in SAFE mode to see if the problem re-occurred in SAFE mode.  It did not.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. 

Thank you.  It wasn't in there directly, but CISCO's "Network Magic" was there.  Removing it appears to have solved the problem.
Thanks again and have a good weekend.
Bob
