When I'm connected to other wireless networks, other people can see my computer as "Macbook-EC86FA" under shared. I don't get why this is shown. I don't see this with any other mac. I have noticed that this "EC86FA" is under system prefs>network>advanced>wins>NetBIOS Name. What is NetBIOS and how do I stop my computer from showing up as this?
I'm running a Macbook(Late 2009) with OS X 10.6.6.
