I can access files on other LAN boxes, but they cannot get to mine

[Rock]

HI,

I have XP Pro and a LAN to other boxes also with XP.

All boxes get to the Internet okay through a gateway, but am having LAN problems.

For years it has fine where everyone had access to all boxes until for some
strange reason it stopped.

I can still get to all the other boxes to access files, but none of the others
can access mine.

They can see the drive structure but as soon as they click the drive, they get
a message like..

so and so is not accessible. You might not have permission ti access the
network. See you admin etc. Not enough server storage is available.

I have all the drives shared and named and have tried it with Firewall off and
on with the same results.

I have un installed and re installed the LAN and the drivers in Dev Mgr.

Any ideas please?

The problem is probably that an antivirus program has changed an
obscure TCP/IP setting on your computer. Please see this Microsoft
Knowledge Base article for a likely solution:
