It is a problem with Vistas added security. Try the Vista Forum.

I reread your post, try disableing the XP Firewall as a test to see if that helps.

Easiest? Stop using "my documents". Create a new folder and use it.

I'd second Jacob6611's post.

For docs that you want each installation to be able access, make a dedicated storage 
folder off of the c: drive and store those docs in there.
