What is Ethernet Adapter en3 on the MacBook Pro? The Network System Preferences show it connected and having an IP address. Should it be left on or turned off?

I've been wondering this myself...and haven't found anything about it yet. To be honest, I haven't looked very hard for it, but I am still curious...

Its the Parallels virtual adapter (I'm assuming you've got Parallels installed).
