Can't acces the server network folders

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Hello,

I've a w2003 server with four XP clients. Independent server without Active
Directory.

Yesterday a virus infected the server and I've cleaned it, Now When I try to
access the server from the clients there is a message that says than
\\server\folder is not accessible.contact with administrator.

The worst thing is that the server is not shown in the network neigbor. and
even the server itself doesn't see himself on the network neigb.

When I type \\server in a explorer window, the shared folders are listed.
But when I try to open (from the same server) the error message is shown.

From the clients, ther's no way to find the server on the network. Ping
works, but navigation or searching by name doesn't work.

Wich service or something is broken for that behavior?
I've made a repair of the windows with the CD but still doesn't work.

Thanks for your help.
