Hi all. I have this REALLY strange problem, i have a computer using XP Pro, and a laptop using Win 98SE. I can find the respective computer if i search for them in the "search for computer" feature. But i cant find the computers in the "my network" or using the explorer and browse to microsoft network, infact i cant find anything, not even the computer i use at the time. To be able to share files i have to use the "connect network adapter" in the file explorer. Anyone knows what might cause this problem? They both are connected to a router which are connected to the web via a ADSL modem. I have added the IPs to both computers firewalls (zonealarm and NIS).
