Show Category Posts Without Children

I am trying to display all posts in a category, without showing the posts in child categories of the parent. https://testing.wearewireless.com under products it shows posts that are in phones which is a sub of products, how do I stop children form showing? Below is my index page:

‘<?php get_header(); ?>

<!– *** –><div class=”clear”></div><!– *** –>

<!– Main Content START –>
<div class=”fwGrid-8″>
<div id=”mainContent” class=”fwVer-10″>

<!– Featured Post START –>
<?php if($paged==0){include(TEMPLATEPATH.”/featuredpost.php”); } ?>
<!– Featured Post END –>

<?php
if(get_category($sst_settings[‘sst_news_cat’]))
$query_cat = ‘category_name=’.get_category($sst_settings[‘sst_news_cat’])->category_nicename.’&’;
?>

<?php query_posts($query_cat.’showposts=’.get_option(‘sst_news_nr_home’).’&paged=’.$paged);

if(have_posts()) : while(have_posts()) : the_post();
if ($post->ID != $featured_ID) { ?>

<div class=”block”>
<?php if (get_post_meta($post->ID, ‘image_thumb’, true)) { ?>
<div class=”fwLeft newsImg”>
“><img src=”<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, ‘image_thumb’, true); ?>” alt=”” class=”fwBorder” />
</div>

<div class=”newsContent”>
<?php } ?>
