I have workgroup icon that just appeared in my network as MSHOME as a
computer. I have my notebook and printer and router already there and working
. I can't log on to it as it asks for a user name and password that I don't
know. I don't know how to remove it.


I think it is your Neighbour Wireless connection appeared in your
Connection Control panel.
Try to Click Refresh or do this:

Click Start >> D Click Control panel >> D Click Network and Internet
Connections >> D Network Connections and right click the Wireless Network
Connection select properties.
On the Wireless Network Connection Properties click on Wireless Networks Tab.
On the The wireless Networks under this option you can remove the MSHOME
icon by doing this:

Preferred networks:
__________________________________________|
| ۩ MSHOME (Automatic)
| ۩ Your Network Name here (Auto)
|
|
|-----------------------------------------------------
[Add ] [ Remove..] [Properties..]

Highlight the network you don't want and click Remove Button.

Or while on Network Connection Click on your wireless then click on the Left
handside the option for View Available Wireless networks to remove it.

Did this machine been in a Workgroup and does the Printer wireless or wired
to the Machine/Router?.
HTH.
