How to disable simplified sharing and set permissions on a shared folder in
Windows XP
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=307874
>From that article:
If simple file sharing is enabled, you see the simple file sharing user
interface rather than the classic Security and Sharing tabs. By default,
this new user interface is implemented in Windows XP Home Edition and in
Windows XP Professional if you are working in a workgroup. If you disable
simple file sharing, the classic Security and Sharing tabs appear, and you
can specify which users and groups have access to shared folders on your
computer.
Good Luck!
