access to program files folder

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

hi,

i am unable to access the 'program files' folder located on a windows
xp machine via the

lan. When on th Win Xp machine, if i try right-clicking on the
'program files' folder, and

attempt to give shared access, i am unable to make this change because
the option to tick

has been disabled. Is there any security policies or registry entries
which i can modify on

the Win Xp machine so as to enable this option?

.
