Who is Carlos?

Hi there, I've recently installed pasystray to manage my volume, and in the default server I've seen localhost and another machine. What does it mean?, and Aspire 58280... is not my laptop.

Thank you in advance, and sorry for my bad english

Nothing to be alarmed about. You aren't hacked or anything. Whomever set the machine up (likely someone named Carlos) called the machine Carlos-Aspire-5820TZG (which I assume is the brand of computer that you are using there) and added the user "Carlos."

I think what you see is the Acer Aspire from Carlos, a (probably spanish or southamerican) guy sitting nearby in the same network, which also has PulseAudio installed and has made it (probably unintentionally) available on the network. Look around! And if you find him, tell him to pay attention to what he exposes on a public network

In another window, I see the sentence ”威利找你的屁股“
