alphauser$ is put by default by Microsoft...
and works with home networking
its called "homegroup"...
you know when network you (usually) need to have to exact same usernames + passwords...
that is replaced with homegroup and alphauser$ which simplifies networking...
you can try it with two Windows 7 machines
wont help if you have a Windows 7 machine and vista or Windows 7 and xp machine though...
just wanted to clarify...
the reason why shawn does not see it is because i think he didnt setup a homegroup network....
you can can clarify this for us shawn...

wished it worked in 7, SUSE for that matter though
Thank you DarkAssain for clearing up that matter. That would probably be what it is then. I do not have any computers networked together, so I can see why I would not have that group.
