I have two computers mine being the main connected together, both can go on
the internet and both have file sharing enabled but on the second computer
when I try to transfer files across to mine it wont let me, as I said both
have file sharing available and the firewall is set ok.

I can connect to the second computer through the main one no problem but
cant do it the other way, I have tried doing a new network and all the usual

any help please, ran adaware and all the anti virus to make sure and both
systems are clear

Help dave
