Had a network where browstat showed 16 master browsers (1 DC, 2 SQL servers and 13 XP SP2 PCs) on the network. They had another issue we were tracking down so PSS had the customer disable the Computer Browser service on all servers but the PDC Emulator DC and issue a GPO to disable that service on all PCs. That stopped the browser master wars (reducing network traffic) and helped us narrow down the other issue (1 building could not browse the network and no other building could see them in NN).
