Network Neighbourhood is a part of Windows 9x, a bit like 'My Computer' except that its for browsing other computers on a network, rather than browsing your own computer.

You can remove it, but not through any of the typical Windows settings. You'll need to download a program like 'TweakUI' from Microsoft (PC World CDs often include this program I believe) and run that, it'll give you the option of removing Network Neighbourhood from your Desktop.

But it may be okay just to leave it there - its not taking up any extra disk space, just desktop space.

Mike.
