|I am trying to turn off simple file sharing, but there is one problem. In the
| folder options->view tab, all of the advanced settings are there except the
| "use simple file sharing" box.
|
| Is there something you need to do to enable that?

| I'm running a fresh install of XP with SP1.

| Thanks in advance.
