[DM-MUG] Finder Issue

[AB]

Does unchecking the web sharing in Sharing found in the System Preferences help any?

Also in System Preferences >>> Spotlight
uncheck the webpages. 

I'd also clear your history, cookies, and cache in your web browser, whichever one you elect to use.  Check your settings, some brower settings and preferences have a place where users can turn off/on "allow websites to store offline data"

Reboot. These are just my ideas. I haven't had any similar problems, so I don't know.

Sometimes other computers in the house and in the neighborhood pop up and are listed in the Shared (Devices) list, but then nothing is there. I myself can see my windows laptop, but for some reason it fails to connect, but I can acess my mac's main drive from my windows laptop, so that's alright for now.

The problem is located in Finder application, on the Shared menu, under the submenu All:   random named URL's are showing up and are listed as Neighborhood.  

The most recent URL to show up is "wildfire.gigya.com"

It does not go away with a reboot.

Does anyone know what causes this issue?  Is it a security issue?


Thanks in advance,
Alan
