    I am using a wireless network with 2 pcs on windows XP home.
    I can access the files on computer A from computer B but I cannot access the files on A from B.
    When I add a network place on B it brings up a box that asks for a password. The user is \\computerA\guest and it's greyed out so I can't change it.
    By default XP home doesn't allow a password to be used on the guest account so I'm stumped. :confused:
