Can See Workgroup Computer but can't access it.

[Tim]

I have three computers on a Home Network (Workgroup). I
can map network drives between all three computers. I.E.
I can share files etc. Computer3 is the latest added to
the workgroup. Through MY NETWORK PLACES & VIEW WORKGROUP
COMPUTERS, Computer3 can access both Computer 1 & 2.
However Computer1 & 2, though able to see Computer3
through MY NETWORK PLACES & VIEW WORKGROUP COMPUTERS are
not allowed access to it when tryimg to drill down. I can
obviously live with this but would preper to be fix it if
possible.

I should have mentioned that all three machines have
Windows XP Pro (SP1). It is only a problem with
Computer's 1 & 2 accessing Computer3 Via MY NETWORK
PLACES & VIEW WORKGROUP COMPUTERS. So it would appear to
be a problem somewhere on Computer3 preventing access.
