I had the exact same problem. Two PC's running XP Pro connected via Linksys Router to a DSL modem. Shared Internet access was fine but could not share files between PC's. Had to do two things: 1. Disable Firewall on both Network connections. 2. Click on "Enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP" in WINS tab of Advanced TCP/IP Settings. Of course, this is not a very secure arrangement so I will have to come up with an alternate configuration. But if you need to copy files over the two XP machines this should do the trick.
