Windows 7 - File Sharing "Computername\Username"

2

Is there a way to disable the computer name being added to the beginning of my username while using windows file sharing? It's really annoying since i'm trying to mount a samba share and it doesn't accept my name with "computername\" being added to it..

Typing \username will remove the computer name from the beginning of the user name.

However, having found this, I still wasn't able to connect to my Samba shares...
