Share Admin's files and folders with Guest XP SP2



I am an Administrator on my Windows XP SP2 machine.

I enabled the Guest account and in turn it has made my (the Admin)
files private (which is good, but may obviously be causing this
problem).
I have turned off Simple File Sharing.
I have added Guest and Everyone in both Sharing and Security with
enabled Read, List & Execute privileges (the defaults).
I have added a shortcut to my "My Music" folder in the Guest's "My
Music" folder.
Now, when I try to open that shortcut from there, it simply just seems
to refresh the Guest's "My Music" folder and does not let me in. (No
errors messages or sounds)


Can someone please give some feedback?


Thank you kindly in advance Y'all!
