Win98SE accessing shared folders in WinXP

    This was working but has stopped. On the Win98 m/c under Explorer I can see the Workgroup and the WInXP machine ("d5dm1y0j") but not the folders.
    When I click on d5dm1y0j I get "\\d5dm1y0j is not accessible. No permission to access resource"

    However, if under Run command I type "\\d5dm1y0j\antdown" an explorer window opens and displays the shared folder "antdown", and I can freely trf files etc.

    Why the folder does not show under Explorer is my question and problem.
