Remove the sharing on the folders on the desktop computer and re-enable
sharing. That should clear the issue.

Using XP Pro with simple file sharing disabled, I used the following
article to setup sharing on my home network. Found it very easy to follow
and it worked for me.

Note: If you have XP Home or prefer simple file sharing in Pro, the above
page has a link in the first introductory paragraphs that goes to a second
article that covers sharing when "simple file sharing" is enabled.
