These entries in the network for Vista are placed there by OneCare for the
Printer Sharing feature. If you are not using this feature and don't plan to,
you can disable Printer sharing by opening OneCare, clicking Change Settings,
and on the Printer
Sharing tab, uncheck the option for "Automatically share all printers
connected..."
It will probably take a reboot and a refresh of the network to remove the
item from the list after this is done.
