Question M67, or it's neighbour ???

I know that sometimes the obvious is not always obvious, so could someone enlighten me about M67?? On my software (Which I have several) M67 seems to be a very sparse cluster and just a little to the East there happens to be a cluster looking object which is denser than M67. Is their something wrong here? Do all these software maufactuers have it wrong? Were the spacial co-ordinates mis-calculated and never corrected?? It would seem to 'me' the cluster near M67 is of more visual significance than M67 itsellf! Please would someone shed some enlightening information on this personal quandry I have. Please don't just give a flipant response. How am I meant to learn if I get simplist off hand remarks, about something which is obvious to the more learned. Thankyou for your time Steven.
