There's a later Version of Browse.dll included in SP3 than the one in
the hotfix.
As to the other 3 questions ...

Several attempts over the last three months, NEVER, EVER, EVER received
anything.
2. Is the Windows Firewall enabled or are you running a third-party
firewall?
3. If you disable the Windows Firewall service (via Start | Run |
services.msc), does the Computer Browser service (cf. services.msc again,
*not* IE or any other web browser) stop after five minutes and is Event ID
7023 then logged in the Event Viewer?
4. Right-click on C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\browser.dll <=this file | Properties |
Version: What version is displayed?

Since (1) WinXP SP3 is available (and has been since early May), and since
(2) installing WinXP SP3 would give you BROWSER.DLL v5.1.2600.5512, and
since (3) KB889320's v5.1.2600.2586 is superseded by v5.1.2600.5512, one can
assume that MS is tacitly telling you to install WinXP SP3 to address the
issue.
