Vista - WIndows XP/Vista Networking.

Ditto for my fix. I checked the Windows Firewall and it was turned off. I
didn't think to check the Norton Internet Security Tab. Turned off the
Norton FW and everything is singing. Thanks, Bob!

My first time to post a reply so don't know all the rules.

I could not get a desktop Vista and wireless laptop XP to recogonize
each other although both were able to get to the Internet via my
router.

Downloaded "Network Magic" from networkmagic.com (free 30 day trial
period) and installed it on both computers. Program worked! Virtually
fool proof.
