    Can't Disable File Sharing

    Vista 5600 - I get the dialog box "...Folder is Shared...", etc. when trying
    to delete or when a temp file is deleted. When I go to "Sharing", it tells
    me I can't "unshare" the folder because it is in a shared folder. When I go
    to the folder's mother folder, it tells me it isn't shared! I am tired of the
    system deleting temp files and having to confirm each time. I can't be
    productive! If the mother folder isn't shared but the daughter folder is, how
    do I stop this!!?
    Thanks - Tony

    RE: Can't Disable File Sharing

    I have one additional item I just discovered - it says I am sharing it with
    "Unknown Contact". Who the heck is that!!? I only have 2 contacts in there
    right now; me and my wife and I only have 1 user set up.
