      I have not seen this before but could someone clarify this.

      I discovered a random connection to my network. I do not know how or where it came from. The connection had a Hostname of "Virusexe" with a MAC address too.

      Thanks for any help.

          May want to lock down your network. Since it's a MAC address, it probably means someone has internal access to your network. Wifi AP?

            hmmm that is what I was thinking too.. I made the MAC address static and block traffic. I'll check back in a day or so to see if anything turns up.
