Try this:

Click the Exceptions tab in the Windows firewall. Make sure File and Printer Sharing 
is checked. Double click File and Printer Sharing. 

Make sure TCP 139 is checked. Double click TCP 139. Select "Any Computer" radio button.

Please post back and let me know if this resolves your issue.

Thanks,

Jeff
