I can't share my WinXP machine (or its printers) on the network

I have a small home network (Wi-Fi) as well as an office
network, and I used to share my computer with the other
machines - shared folders and printeres, etc. Lately this
has stopped working, in fact, whenever someone tries to
print through my machine (or even access it) they get "XXX
is not accessible. You might not have permission to use
this network resource. Contact the administrator of this
server..."

I also get the same message when I try to LOOK for other
machines in my net! I haven't really changed anything
lately (other than regularly updating the MS Win
updates...) Can anyone think of the reason for this
behavior????????????
 
Hi,

This is exactly the same problem I have, which I just
posted about too. I find it strange because the access
permissions on my pcs must be fine as my non wireless
network is ok.

Help us! :)
