Guest account on accesing to a pc in local network

[Guest]

This is the situation:

Two pcs with Windows XP SP2. Windows firewall disabled in both. Same account
(administrator rights) name and password in both. No spyware or another
firewall enabled. Same work group in both

When I try \\192.168.0.3\c$ from 192.168.0.2 a popup asking for password
appears but I can't change the user. It only appears Guest and disabled.

But when I try \\192.168.0.2\c$ from 192.168.0.3 a popup asking for password
appears and the user textbox is enabled.

What do i have to change to have user textbox enabled instead of guest
account?

Thanks

Disable the guest account on the target PC.

If you are using XP Pro you need to disable simple file sharing as explained
in the link below.
