Double Configuration?

I reran my network configuration recently while attempting to identify a
problem with my LAN that involves three machines on different Windows
platforms feed by cable modem going through a router then a switch. The
issue at hand at the time has been solved but I just noticed I have a double
configuration when I look at Network Neighborhood through Explore. What
should be there, and is there, is:

Three computers listed under the name of my network which, in turn, is
listed under "Entire Neighborhood".

However, on the same level as "Entire Neighborhood", I now have my same
three computers listed separately on equal level with "Entire Neighborhood".
There's a duplicate listing and I think because of the position depicted by
the level of rank, they may represent a separate configuration.

How do I get rid of the separately listed computers?

What you see is normal. You see all the computers in your workgroup, then
the "Entire Neighborhood" icon so you can browse other workgroups that may
be accessible to your network. Of course your workgroup is there, and so
are the three PCs again.
