Please interpret Event Viewer ERROR?

Trying to understand what this ERROR message is saying. Why does this
appear as an ERROR. My laptop is MONTECORE that is connected via wireless
router to my desktop system.

"The master browser has received a server announcement from the computer
MONTECORE that believes that it is the master browser for the domain on
transport NetBT_Tcpip_{6AC6EFFF-6946-40C7. The master browser is stopping or
an election is being forced."

I got a nice explanation in another forum that I wanted to share:

Any Microsoft network has a computer known as the "master browser". In a
domain, this would normally be one of the domain controller, but in a
workgroup, it works a little different.

Usually, the computer that is on first (meaning, when it boots up, it can
find no other computer in its workgroup) will be the master browser. The
next computer on the network will then automatically detect the master
browser, and be happy with that.

The issue that you are having is that a computer that is the master browser
are detecting another computer claiming to be the master browser. This could
be because your wireless network was disconnected for a brief period of time.
If that occurs, both your desktop and wireless computer will set itself as
the master browser (because they are now on seperate networks, and the only
computer on that network).

You don't really have to worry about this error, it's something that your
computers are working out between themselves, so there's nothing that you
have to do to resolve the issue.
