I guess this is my lucky day. I too gave up with File and Printer Sharing Problem
long time, but yesterday I came home from work and told myself to try one more time.
From 9:PM until 5AM, nothing happened. Then, at 5 something, BINGO. A miracle. I
found this solution. I have Symantec Anti-Viruse, which Firewelled my Client computer.
I disabled it and now it is working fine. How one sily mistake can cause a lot of
damage and anger to a lot of people.
Please all of you, continue to share your thoughts. It can make a lot of difference
to a lot of people. Anyways, I just want to say thanks to Deshaney.
