I am having a similar problem. Suddenly I can't find my
daughter's laptop and when I log on her unit --- it can't
find my laptop. I get the access is denied --- don't have
permission message. We are linked through a Linksys router
and we both still have internet access. No one has changed
any network settings. I'm beginning to wonder if it has
anything to do with the latest Microsoft critical updates
which I downloaded and installed last week. That's when the
problem seem to start. Any ideas????
