On the "My Network Places" screen, I am unable to click
the "View Workgroup Computers" option. If I do, it will
wait, and then display an error message saying:

"Sfl network is not accessible. You might not have
permission to use this network resource. Contact the
administrator of this server to find out if you have
access permissions.

I have not done anything to do with access permissions,
and I am running an ad hoc network. Can anybody help?
 
I am experiencing the exact same symptoms. If I get a
lead I will post it here on your Bulletin board Message.
So far I have drawn a blank. Both of my machines (one XP
Pro and one XP Home) can connect to Internet just fine.
Both machines can find themselves in "Find Computers"
selection in the search facility. My XP Pro machine can
find itself in "View Workgroup Computers" but my XP Home
machine exhibits the exact same symptoms that you
describe. I'm using a D-link DI-604 router.

Good Luck,
Dave Mason
