removing ghost computers from network neighborhood

[Guest smg]

I recently left a network of 3 computers

However, when viewing network neighborhood, these computers are still listed.

I am no longer involved with a network

How can I remove them?

I don't know. I never used it. There is a lot about networking in

Windows Help. Also, here are many articles about it. Would you be able

to recognise the answer if you saw it...?...

Maybe work out a plan & post it for someone to examine. That won't be

me!

They're supposed to go away by themselves after a certain period of

time. Disable the Browser service and the browse list should clear up.

And how does one do that in Windows 98?

Re: removing ghost computers from network neighborhood

 

Control Panel -> Network applet -> File and printer sharing for

Microsoft Networks -> Properties -> Browse Master -> Set to Disabled.

 

Click OK, and restart the computer. You can disable File and Printer

sharing completely, you are no longer on a network so no need for it.
