Tom, I have had the same issues. I have about 5 computers on the network.
THey are a mixture of XP, CE for Devices, ME, Vista Business, and Vista
Ultimate. I see the same issue with my teo Vista PC's. One of them is wired
and one is wireless (Notebook).

I have enabled the proper folders for sharing to "Everyone" and I get the
access error like you do. Sometimes it takes a LONG time before that error
appears. I usually have to manually abort it.

I hope someone provides an answer that really works... my new Vista machines
are driving me crazy when I try use them with my LAN!
