Could someone please let me know how I turn off my Windows
Firewall. This may allow my computers to see each other
on my wireless network. thx

Goto your network connections.
Select the interface that is being firewalled.
Right click and goto properties.

In the advanced tab, you should get an option to turn off the firewall.

If all you want to do is get Windows File/Print sharing working, you could
just create firewall exceptions so that that service will run. To do this,
see here
