How to prevent products located in subcategories, from appearing in their main categories also.

Go to Design > Themes, click the active theme to edit it, now expand the title "Product Listing" on the left column > "All Products Main Category" checkbox.

When this box is unchecked, your main categories will only display the products that are directly assigned to them from your product settings.

To remove the "No products listed" text please see the knowledge base article found here  http://support.ashop.com.au/KB/a583/hide-there-are-no-products-to-display-in-an-empty-category.aspx

Important: If you have the "filter box" widget activated, it will only be useful when you have a lot of products under a category. So if removing them from the main category means you don't display many products, then you may also want to remove that filter widget.

OR..

You can also disable the subcategories from displaying above the products via your themes editor. Edit your online theme and it's a setting on the left menu
