Win XP Pro Networked with Win98 cannot access X

Ive turned "simple file sharing" off in Admin side but on my side (power user) it is still ticked, how can I un-tick it? every time I do its still ticked.

Ticked off!

Log on as the Admin, make your Power User account an Administrator, login on
that account, turn of simple file sharing, log back in as the Admin and make
your normal account a power user again.

Let us know if that doesn't work.
