XP Workgroup Browse Master

Asked by really24 in Windows Networking, Windows XP Operating System

I'm trying to optimize the settings in our network of about 20 WinXp computers as a Workgroup. Before I was having problems with a PC that was being elected as the "Browse Master" that had 2 network cards. I disabled it in Admin Tools. Soon after I did that I had about 10 network share folders appear in My Network Places. I previously deleted all of them. Why did they reappear? Which computer is broadcasting this information? My goal is to understand deeper what happens in a WinXP workgroup environment.
