Dear

I was facing the same problem and I have solved this problem by right clicking the folder go to the security tab instead of sharing then allow everyone to it, click ok
Again right click on the folder and go to to shraing tab then do all the sharing things related to the folder.

By default in Windows XP. Every folder have the system rights and the local user rights so on network sharing still no body can access the folder.
Hope the problem will be solved.

Good Luck
Kashif
