Well if you look at this Google query [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] you can see that there are a few people asking the same thing. If I were in your situation I would see that as maybe being a default PC name on setup if you don't enter one. But then the little amount of results in Google could suggest something malicious?

That's just a virus database ran by iAntivirus; not a your computer.
