Shared Documents Folder does not share on 2nd computer
I used the wizard to setup a shared folder between 2 computers. The wizard runs and all is good but the 2nd computer does not show the files in the mShared Folder. I am using Internet Explorer 8. Also when I try to see my workgroup places, I get error message that says " MSHOME is not accessable. You might not have permissions to use this network resource. Contact the Administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. The list of servers for this workgroup is not currently available,"
I am the Admin for this computer and the only user. Any hel is appreciated.

carsondot,
Not too keen on file sharing, my kids don't want to share files with dad.
You need to have a carsondot account on bothe the computers with identical passwords.
When all else fails, try the FREE features in Network Magic

Your browser is irrelevant. You do not use your IE to see the shared folders. You use Windows Explorer. We need to know what operating system is on both computers and what 'wizard' you are using. Your network setup is important. Explain how your home network connects the computers.

I am using Windows XP Professional on both computers. Both have Workgroup named MSHOME. I used wizard for "setup a home or small office network". I have a ATT 2 wire Modem. Both computers are connected to the internet thru ATT.
Thank you for your help
