Unknown shared PC on my system- HELP!

Any help much appreciated. I keep getting an unknown icon under my shared computers. AM I BEING HACKED?!?! It doesn't seem likely. Anyhow, I just updated a bunch of printer drivers etc and system software. Maybe I screwed something up. The shared item is called "brn_83c84e" when I click on it tries to connect then fails. When I do an "info" on it says it's a PC Server. Any ideas on how to get rid of this?
Thanks

I am suddenly having a similar problem, but on only one of my computers. Under the Shared items in my Finder sidebar, a PC icon server labeled only "83" appears. Sometimes it disappears, but then reappears.
When I do a Get Info, all it says is that it is a PC Server. When I try to connect to it, I get a dialogue box that says: "Connection failed: The server "83" is available on your computer. Access the volumes and files locally."
I have checked my Airport, and only proper machines are connected to it. This appears on no other machine on the network. And as far as I know, I am not running any services, and all sharing is turned off.
