What's causing the (2) beside my category display?

I have a #2 in parenthesis at the top left-hand side of my test page beside my categories. Were is this coming from?

my page: http://www.webfxonline.com/cw

See in your categories table if there is any extra record

No, I didn't see anything unusual there.

Can you post the part of the code where it is getting the categories from the database and printing? I am sure something weird is going on there
Thanks

Sure, which file should that be in?

I think this is the one (tpl_categories.php):

I figured out what was causing the (2) at the top of my category listings. Apparently, I had moved my only 2 products so far into the 'phones' category and that caused the (2) to display at the top of the list. When I moved them out of that category the (2) went away.

ok, so what is the resolution?

I placed it in my first post: When I moved them out of that category the (2) went away.

Much eaiser to just turn it off in:

admin -> configruation -> show category counts and set to false

I went to admin->configuratoin->My Store->Show CAtegory counts Admin and made it to false(update)
but I can still see the number of products in each category
