I have a home network and I can get to the internet but I can't seem to get
to any sub-folders ie Documents and Settings|Ralph. I can see Documents and
Settings and I can see Ralph but I can't get beyond that point. File sharing
is turned on (simple file sharing). Every time I try to drill down to
anything below Ralph I get "Access Denied and that I possibly do not have
permission". So what am I missing?

Turn simple file sharing off.
