RE: Networking problem
You need to have a user with the exact same name and password on BOTH computers, and you need to turn off Simple File Sharing in Folder Options > View.

RE: Networking problem
I've this same problem wich has no answer (http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=46717). Is this the only way? setting up the same user/pass on the other computers? Because I organize lan parties and it would be pretty tired/annoying setting up all of them :S.

EDIT: Exactly that's the same problem for me!
EDIT2: Screenshot:

I've tried everything! I have 2 networks adapters, and IPX protocol also installed. I put TCP/IP as my default protocol also.

No, the guest account just needs to be there.
