I suggest you search in Vista Help for file sharing.

You need to turn off 'password protected sharing' from the network and
sharing center in the control panel.

Also, you will need to be sure you give 'everyone' access to the
folders you want to be able to access from another computer using the
"share" button in the share tab of the folder's properties, because
without password-protected sharing, WIndows Vista will not be able to
identify who you are from other computers.
