Agreed.  There are a variety of things that cause Windows to make unexpected Windows networking connection attempts to 
remote machines.  Many of these things use the Anonymous account or the Windows machine account (a series of 
alphanumeric characters with a $ dollar sign).  If the logins use these accounts and no others, there is not very much 
a person could see or do using just these accounts alone.
